This is a 2011 Czech documentary directed by Matej Mináč. It is an enthralling docu-drama that artfully tells the story of how Mr. Winton gave up a 1938 skiing holiday to answer a friend's request for help in Prague and didn't stop helping until the war's beginning stopped him. He worked frantically, placing refugee children in English homes. The story is told in vintage film clips with present-day interviews and the kind of dramatic re-creation video.
