There are a few moments of grating sentimentality, but these are balanced with a quirky humour and a mildly daring unpredictability.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Antonia's Line is enjoyable because it is never preachy. It depicts, with a painterly eye, a pagan world that has not changed since Breughel.

New York Daily News
...ANTONIA'S LINE cherishes the possibility of continuity and civilization, a rare and hopeful sign at the end of our chaotic century...
Film Comment
...A feel-good fairy tale....It is a warm-hearted and empowering experience...
Variety
Antonia's Line perfectly fits the Oscar mold: set in the past, studiously PC, sentimental, multigenerational, and loaded with hollow ruminations on the nature of life, death, and the passage of time.

Product Description:
Following World War II, a woman returns to the Dutch countryside to raise her young daughter, ultimately founding a sort of open-use commune wherein the residents defy convention and live life as they please. A gentle comic drama. Academy Awards: Best Foreign Language Film.
