Story
Nelly and Nadine is the unlikely love story between two women falling in love on Christmas Eve, 1944, in the Ravensbrück concentration camp.

I watched it and it left me with a lot of questions.
To manyI felt they didn't share all what was inside grandma's box
Instead we got to see this granddaugter who wasn't even curious enough to look inside this box for more then 20 years; when she got the box from her mother.
Who was this woman before the Nelly & Nadine Story started?
This story is about two brave women and we start with seeing the opposite, the scared granddaughter.I missed the simple details about the grandmother.
Where was Nadine buried?Instead we get to see the same 8mm homemovies over and over again and this creates this image of two older women in your head
And when seeing that one photo again, the one with a younger Nadine wearing thick glasses, or the video of Nadine arriving in Sweden you get confused.It lacks certain details… crucial details that can be found with a little research.
