The film recounts the fate of four survivors of Jewish origin who were sent on their own by their parents to Sweden during the Third Reich, with the so-called “Kindertransports”, in order to save them from the Nazi terror – and experienced a trauma which exists even today, with feelings of loss, loneliness, uprooting and a sense of guilt. Their stories depict the tragic fate of a winner who is at the same time the loser of his own salvation. Most of them never saw their parents again. Sweden gave only 500 children shelter.
