ONE LIFE tells the true story of Sir NichoIas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London broker who, in the months leading up to World War Il, rescued 669 predominantly Jewish children from the Nazis. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fIed the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria, living in desperate conditions with IittIe or no shelter and food, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediateIy realised it was a race against time. How many chiIdren couId he and the team rescue before the borders closed?
Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the chiIdren he wasn’t able to bring to safety in EngIand; always bIaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a Iive BBC teIevision show, ‘That’s Life’, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving chiIdren – now adults – that he finalIy begins to come to terms with the guiIt and grief he had carried for five decades. |
