    In 1938 and 1939, about 10,000 children, most of them Jews, were sent by their parents from Germany, Austria, and Czechoslovakia to the safety of England where foster families took most of them in for the duration of the war. Years later, eleven kinder, one child's mother, an English foster mother, a survivor of Auschwitz who didn't go to England, and two of the kindertransport organizers remember: the days before the Nazis, the mid-to-late 1930s as Jews were ostracized, saying farewell to family, traveling to England, meeting their foster families, writing home, fearing the worst, coping, and trying to find families after the war ended. 1,500,000 children dead; 10,000 saved.

    IMDB - Won 1 Oscar | Wikipedia | Rotten Tomatoes

    Given its scope, it's amazing this Holocaust story hasn't been told before: in 1939, thousands of Jewish children were taken into households and hostels in Great Britain. The intention was to later have the children–or kinder–reunite with their parents; but once WWII was over, reunions were rare cases. This is an inherently moving story, and director Mark Jonathan Harris has the wisdom to trust that; more than anything, this film is characterized by its restraint and, as a result, the truer emotions it achieves. Lee Holdridge's score isn't intrusive; the narration by Dame Judi Dench is used in moderation; the superb sound design by Gary Rydstrom subtly brings the survivors' memories to life. Not that they needed any help–their stories are remarkably vivid and poignant, as are their expressive faces as they get caught up in the sweep of often painful memories.

    Faces which carry history. That's what you will take away with you after watching a highly-charged two hours about the Kindertransport trains which left Germany, Austria, and Czechoslovakia during the nine months before the Second World War began to wrest 100,000 mainly Jewish children away from the Nazis. This act of salvation was made possible not just by rescuers like Nicholas Winton, a 29-year-old London stockbroker in 1938, but by willing families in Britain, even if some did exploit the kids as free labour.

    And emotion, memory, love, and loss are etched deeply into the faces of a lady who still dreams of a sunny, happy childhood and wakes sobbing; another who woke up to the reality of Nazism when no child showed up at her birthday party; there is, by contrast, Kurt Fuchel, who led a comfy, sheltered existence in Vienna; while another survivor remembers - when still very young - being tossed through a plate-glass window.

    As the film moves on from troubling German childhoods through the journeys to Britain to the children's selection (by families) and survival in their new country, some of the most upsetting memories include the agony of departure, as children left parents for what the parents correctly guessed would be forever. Towards the end of the film, an old Czech lady remembers the letter which she wrote to her folks after the war being returned to her with the brief scribble on the back: 'Deported to Auschwitz, 1944'.

    Director Mark Jonathan Harris' plain, unfussy style does not embroider or interfere with what the survivors say, and he allows his camera plenty of time to absorb the story on each face. His camera also pans very slowly across old photographs so that the faces in those become as alive - and as moving - as those which speak.
