Rating: 3.5/4 --
Antonia is a work of rare lyricism. It glows with the light of a Flemish painting and the spirit of magic realism.

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

It's a broad historical saga of great warmth, but it would have been more convincing if it didn't have "feminist agenda" stamped all over it.

Rating: 3/4 --
It glides so easily over a multitude of events and characters that we're never jarred; Antonia and Bas make a winning alternative-community grandma and grandpa.

...ANTONIA'S LINE cherishes the possibility of continuity and civilization, a rare and hopeful sign at the end of our chaotic century...

Rating: 4/5 --
The performances are modest and appealing. In the title role, Van Ammelrooy projects a remarkable combination of optimism, strength and resignation.
