The Reader, directed by Stephen Daldry, opens in post World War 2 Germany when 16-year-old Michael is helped home by Hanna an older woman when he becomes ill. Michael recovers from scarlet fever and looks for Hanna to thank her. Soon the two embark upon a secretive and passionate affair but despite their deep bond, one day Hanna abruptly moves leaving Michael feeling confused and heartbroken. Years later when Michael is observing a trial in Germany as a law student, he is shocked to see that it is Hanna facing trial. Suddenly, it all clicks into place as Michael learns of her horrific past, which impacts upon both of their lives but that's not the only secret Hanna is trying to hide. This is a beautifully haunting film about secrets, love and the examination of German conscience.
