Nicholas Winton: The Man Who Saved 669 Children screens as part of the 2022 New Jersey International Film Festival on Sunday, June 12

by Jack Greenberg
published 2022-06-06

Nicholas Winton: The Man Who Saved 669 Children, directed by Frédéric Tonolli,  is a film unlike any other. There are many movies on the Holocaust, unfortunately, but it is because there is so much to discuss. The Holocaust was an immensely dark time for Jewish people where over six million Jews were murdered simply because they were Jewish. This film depicts the astounding actions of Sir Nicholas Winton which prevented the killing of Jewish children. Winton uses his own money to transport children from areas under Nazi rule to England. This film also focuses on the hardships that families faced while they were broken up as parents could not accompany their children.
