Nicky's Family tells the nearly forgotten story of Nicholas Winton, an Englishman who organized the rescue of 669 Czech and Slovak children just before the outbreak of World War II.
Winton, now 104 years old, did not speak about these events with anyone for more than half a century. His exploits would have probably been forgotten if his wife, fifty years later, hadn ´t found a suitcase in the attic, full of documents and transport plans.
Nicky's Family has earned rave reviews from audiences and critics around the world, winning over 30 awards—including 14 audience awards from U.S. film festivals!
