ONE LIFE – Sneak Preview

In ONE LIFE, Anthony Hopkins and Johnny Flynn bring together the recognition Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton deserves, portraying old and young versions of the humanitarian who assisted in the transportation of 669 children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to the UK. James Hawes’s powerhouse film chronicles Winton’s rapid trajectory from living as a stockbroker in the UK to joining his friends in Prague in an impulsive attempt to rescue refugees living under Hitler’s regime. With the help of his compassionate mother (Helena Bonham Carter), Winton and his team work through sweat and tears, fundraising and resisting bureaucratic authority to complete their mission. Winton’s memories of his wartime efforts inundate his mind years later into his life, eventually leading to his iconic appearance on BBC’s That’s Life programme.

Official Selection of the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, PJFM invites you to a film that pays tribute to a righteous yet modest hero of the Shoah, a man whose bravery should stay forever preserved in history.
