'One Life' tells the true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London broker who, in the months leading up to World War II, rescued 669 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. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed?
Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring
to safety in England; always blaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a live BBC television
show, ‘That’s Life’, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children - now adults - that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.
'One Life' is a remarkable, thought-provoking and deeply emotional new film coming to cinemas this January depicting this humanitarian triumph. A true story of one man, who risked everything to save the lives of others.
In this video, Dan Snow sits down with the exemplary cast (Helena Bonham Carter, Johnny Flynn and Romola Garai) to find out more about the incredible true story and the process of depicting incredible feat.
One Life is in cinemas now!

A good friend was saved by Sir Nicholas as a child. She grew up in Bavaria and went to the last Jewish school. She and her sister went with Kindertransport to England. In the tv show of Sir Nicholas, she was the second person to his right. She went on from being saved to being the person who began the initiative for public television to have educational programming for children. That effort became Sesame Street. My youngest is named for her as she had no family of her own. She and her sister were the only siblings of the Kindertransport to be reunited with both parents after the war.

I am 66 years old and enjoyed a childhood full of love and stability. Grandparents came through Ellis Island, settled in the city and raised children who went on to college and became educators. My parents moved to the suburbs and helped create so many "wonder years" for my sister and me. Please tell your good friend how much I admire her courage, resilience and efforts to make the lives of other children better.

Here in Portugal we had a diplomat that proceded the same way: is name was Aristides de Sousa Mendes. He disobeyed a direct order of the portuguese government of the time. The price he had to pay for saving thousands was unemployment, misery and persecution. He died in the utmost state of misery, he and all his family. This examples are those of men of real courage and humanity.

There were indeed many - a Portuguese diplomat, a Greek princess, a Japanese consular official, Polish farmers - and so very many others. And like Nicky Winton, they were all driven by a fundamental humanity that is an example to us all today, just as it was then. I like to think that, in the telling of the story of Nicky and his team, we are honouring them all.

New Zealand bought 733 Polish children out of the USSR via Iran when Stalin released Polish POWs in 1944, most were orphans and others had fathers and mother serving in the Free Polish Forces. These children now have grandchildren and great-grandchildren who still keep their Polish heritage alive and are now also Kiwis! Many met their husbands and wives within the group and the NZ Govt and NZ Red Cross housed, fed and educated them. Given the Soviet occupation of Poland post-war, many chose to stay and restart their lives in NZ.

Perhaps I may respond.This film represents a singular event within the expanding horror of the Shoah. Many thousands of non-Jews who risked everything to save Jewish lives have been honored at the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Museum, Jerusalem, where their names will shine forever, as 'The Righteous ' or in Hebrew ' hasidei umot haolam ' - individuals who could not stand by and do nothing. That required a special kind of bravery, so to be named one of the Righteous Among Nations is a very special recognition for their courage and determination to do the right thing - each one a light in the dark !!!!!

@@MrTorleon There is that. But what I'm thinking of in terms of people who will never be recognised is something like the throwaway mention in an interview book with a minister and respected theologian in my church (now passed away), where he mentions that in the congregation where he was as a young minister-in-training during WW2, they, this is a paraphrase from memory, "wrote some Jewish families into the books for a lot earlier than they should have." As it happens, one side of my family comes from that city, and that congregation, and there are family rumours we never have been able to confirm that great-grandfather (passed away when I was little) successfully hid Jewish ancestry during WW2. So even though my family's not Jewish, definitely has not been for at least four generations, it's entirely possible that even I exist because of someone who did something.

I saw the movie a couple of days ago. It’s a deeply moving story and the recreation of the That’s Life show was done faithfully and was very emotional. Like the Schindler Jews, the Winton descendants survived, due to the dogged determination of one man and his team. I cannot imagine how incredibly difficult it must have been for the parents of the children to hand them over to strangers in an effort to ensure their survival. I was happy to learn about this very humble man.

I do hope that this film lives up to the hype !!! I am Jewish, most of my family were murdered by the Gestapo in Belgium. A stunning and emotionally deep documentary was produced a few years ago hosted by Sir Martin Gilbert, Holocaust historian, together with Rwandan genocide activist Stephanie Nyombayire. together, they followed the stories of those diplomats who not only risked their careers, their own lives and those of their families, but made every humanitarian effort to save, collectively thousands of Jewish lives, which included many, many children. Previous films, in my view have failed to capture the indescribable desperation that these terrible circumstances created - I hope that this film does true justice to both the dead, and those who survived.

I’ve seen ’One Life’ twice, and no doubt I will see it several more times. It is a good film, but it is nevertheless a dramatic film, not a documentary, and as such it cannot possibly fully capture the indescribable desperation and brutality of these events, and no art form could possibly do adequate justice for those who suffered death and loss. It can only be a representation, in this case one inspired by the memoir written by Nicholas Wilton’s daughter. And as such, it is a worthy re-telling of just one perspective of this invaluable story. With no political, geographic, social or religious axe to grind here, the utter shame of our species is that events such as those retold in ‘One Life’ are thoroughly commonplace in human history, and sadly look set to remain so for the foreseeable future.

@@chrisdrake447 Thank you for your response, and your point is well taken. Documentaries have, as their main purpose, the dissemination of information with a reasonably high degree of reliability.Films, by contrast are about entertainment - or as one of my past students prosaically put it ' bums on seats ' !!!!! Films with high production values and dedicated research can, to a degree incorporate both, as witness the obvious example of ' Schindler`s List ' which despite the horror of the storyline, and the demand of serious viewing was a tremendous box office hit, as they say :) I have yet to see this film -I am not a great movie buff to be honest, but I hope I will not be too dissapointed when I do - I feel encouraged that you consider it a good film :)

But as I learnt about him it seemed that he'd never sought recognition and that the tv moment must have felt like a trap...

Probably because he helped the Republic of Spain to bring to a safe country the children in war zone regardless of their Faith. Unfortunately when the fascist dictatorship regime (allied of Hitler and Mussolini) took over, all those good countries but one shipped back the children under the request of the fascist regime. Only one country imposed one condition, the parents of the child wanted their children return and we're alive, well and free. The fate of the children handed over to the Hitler friend is one of the horrors of the postwar in Spain, never told and would never told England, France, Netherlands, Belgium etc etc etc all in shame but Russia Russia treated these kids admirably well considering the circumstances (IIWW and its post war misery) they ensured the kids kept their Spanish heritage, culture. Many of them returned to Spain when the democracy was restored, 40 years later while others when they retired and others just stay in Russia I doubt it would be ever a movie telling the world that the Russians actually saved the children of Spain, the fate of the other children one of the worse crime against humanity in modern era, it is what it is

Hmmmm, actors were great. Especially Hopkins, Flynn and Bonham-Carter. But the rest is just primary emotional attack. I liked the English and Czech together which worked authentic but the rest not too much. Scene around the last train was too dramatic. In real they just stopped it and sent back. I don´t like one thing especially which occurs in English speaking movies too often. Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic = Prague. I am not anti-Prague.

One Life is a brilliant, extraordinary film. SPOILER ALERT! I love how different and real this felt compared to most hero movies. There was no scene where Sir Nicholas Winton delivered an emotional heroic speech to a crowd to get help and donations (given the time period and place they were in, that would’ve been incredibly unrealistic as freedom of speech was limited). “Show, not tell” was achieved beautifully in this film. Instead of everything working out in a night, they showed Nicky, Doreen and Trevor working long hours, racing time day and night. Instead of Sir Winton saying he loved and cared about kids, they showed it by him photographing kids and doing everything within his power to find foster homes for them. I also loved the scene where he gives kids small pieces of chocolate and how happy the kids look during that scene. It also makes the viewers realise how small things most take for granted, such as chocolate, can be a privilege to some and how fortunate we are to have it. I also loved how they showed Sir Winton grieving the loss of the children they couldn’t save. The producers didn’t change it to a perfect happy ending where everyone lives. Instead, they mentioned what happened to those who weren’t as fortunate, but the 669 lives they rescued are worth celebrating. I also appreciate at the end of the movie, they told us what happened to Nicky’s friends. They weren’t just forgotten; instead, they were mentioned without too much screen time, as this movie is about Sir Nicholas Winton and the children he saved.

Has Trevor Chadwick been deliberately forgetting. Did more than any of these characters. Shameful - Doreen wasn’t involved at all with the children as a starting point. Re writing History here !

They had died before 1987 before it came to light. The movie honoured them very well.

To Winton ( verb ) or Wintoning which I try to practise is the exact opposite of this film. Despite great acting and writing in the film it would not have pleased him.

Times have changed and the refugees now invading our shores are not going yo assimilate and are 90% economic. Helena would have them here all unvetted. Different rules for different times. Gosh will the male actor let the female one talk?

Refugees and Economic Migrants are completely different things. If you were educated about the issue, you would realise that. They are not "swarming our shores" - these are human beings, not locusts. Your comments are right-wing, reactionary nonsense. Go and meet some actual refugees and please stop reading the Daily Mail.

Ok-I’m totally anti Hollywood-crass, stupid and anti-American. Maybe since this was not an American pos it is an amazing story worth watching and it’s true. There is no one in the world at this time except maybe Donald Trump -like him or not-actually trying to make world problems better. We are a selfish, greed and spoiled society at this point in time. We need to remember and respect the sacrifices made during WWII and be better people not richer.
