LAF (Life After Fifty) invites you to join in a fascinating discussion of the PBS movie:

 August, 1945. A coachload of children arrive at the Calgarth Estate by Lake Windermere. They are child survivors of the Nazi Holocaust that has devastated Europe’s Jewish population. Carrying only the clothes they wear and a few meagre possessions, they bear the emotional and physical scars of all they have suffered. Charged with looking after them is Oscar Friedmann, a German-born child psychologist. He and his team of counsellors have just four months to help the children reclaim their lives.

“As someone who’s grandparent was a Windermere child, I have no complaints and only praise to speak of this masterpiece. Will definitely be a classic … Amazing experience.”
