In May of 1939, as a ten-year-old boy, Ivan Backer boarded one of Sir Nicholas Winston's famous Kindertransports and fled Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia for the United Kingdom. Detailed in this true story is Backer's escape, his boyhood in England, his perilous 1944 voyage to America and his mantra today as an award-winning humanitarian and an activist for peace and justice.
