Finding Loren

Overview

In 1945, just days before the end of World War II, 27-year-old fighter pilot Loren Hintz was shot down over rural Italy, leaving behind his pregnant wife and young daughter. More than 70 years later, Hintz’s grandson, Hans Wronka, leads an effort to recover his remains and finally lay them to rest. FINDING LOREN uses Hintz’s own words, vintage photographs, and archival footage to follow the sweeping trajectory of his life.
