ONE LIFE tells the incredible, emotional true story of Nicholas 'Nicky' Winton (Johnny Flynn), a young London broker who visits Prague in December 1938. In a race against time, Winton convinces the British Committee for Refugees in Czechoslovakia to rescue hundreds of predominantly Jewish children before Nazi occupation closes the borders. Fifty years later, Nicky (Anthony Hopkins), haunted by the fate of the children he wasn't able to bring to safety in England. Finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he carried and moves from anonymity to a national hero. Excellent support from Romola Garai and Helena Bonham-Carter.


Rotten Tomatoes gives One Life a 90% Fresh critical rating and 95% audience rating. "Winton’s wartime heroism and its emotional toll on him decades later, told in two time frames. His is an extraordinary story, with a strong payoff and stellar performances by two-time Oscar winner Hopkins and a star-studded supporting cast." Hannah Brown in The Jerusalem Post.
