Synopsis

Prague, 1939. The Czech lands have just been occupied by Nazi Germany. The 14-year-old Czech Jewish boy David who dreams of being a concert pianist escapes to England on a train organized by Englishman Nicholas Winton. In England David joins the modest middle-class household of Mr. Roberts, a small-town barber and organist in the local church. The good-natured and cheerful Roberts is hoping David will take the place of his son Alan, whose recent death has left his mother in a state of shock. David finds in England security, romance and finally love – but will he be able to follow his dream?
