Austin Film Society: “Rosenstrasse accurately represents an important episode of a largely forgotten aspect of German history. Katja Riemann (gives a) restrained and graceful performance as Lena, one of the leaders of the Rosenstrasse movement.”
Variety: “…brings the horrifying incidents up-to-date by giving the story a contemporary spin.”
