At the outbreak of World War II, Sir Nicholas Winton saved the lives of 669 Czechoslovakian children from the lethal threat of the Nazis. Dubbed the "British Schindler" for his heroism, this film, produced by Emmy-award winning producer Matej Minac, tells the original story through dramatic reenactments narrated by the rescued children and Sir Nicholas himself.
Rare archival footage and interviews with Joe Schlesinger, a CBC reporter and one of the rescued children, documents not
only how Winton's act changed the lives of those he rescued,
but also how it continues to influence the lives of thousands of others worldwide.
