Overview:

Before and during WWII, the Dutch war hero Truus Wijsmuller saved the lives of thousands of Jewish children. She was a woman so convinced of her mission that she flew to Vienna to negotiate a deal with Adolf Eichmann to let 10.000 mostly Jewish children leave their birth countries and flee to England and the Netherlands. In this documentary, 23 of the children look back on the extraordinary events.
