Synopsis: The story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London stockbroker who, in the months leading up to World War II, rescued 669 predominantly Jewish children from the Nazis. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria, living in desperate conditions with little or no shelter and food, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realised it was a race against time to rescue the children before the borders closed.
