Based on the book by Anne L. Fox, this compelling drama tells the real-life story of the 1938 Kindertransport–the movement of over 10,000 Jewish children out of Germany and Austria–and a young girl’s struggle to bring meaning out of despair. The result is a gripping and poignant production, a tribute to the strength of the human spirit and a child’s courage in the time of war
