A true story about a rich Jewish family in the 1930's fleeing the Nazi's .Not whiney & preachy made to depress you like so many movies about the subject but great history with a happy real life ending
After Hitler takes over the family moves from Germany to Switzerland to Paris then finally London .The central theme was how the teen age son and little girl learn to adjust /learn from going to place to place. In the end on a ship to Britain they are common sense confident about learning/living in about someplace new .
The pro British angle includes how Britain gave these fugitives a new home & prosperity . Together with how the kids grew up to be very successful in real life.
