This docudrama tells the story of Nicholas Winton, an Englishman who organized the rescue of 669 Jewish Czech and Slovak children just before the outbreak of World War II. Winton, now 102 years old, did not speak about these events with anyone for more than half a century. His exploits would have probably been forgotten if his wife, fifty years later, hadn't found a suitcase in the attic, full of documents and transport plans. Today the story of this rescue is known all over the world. Dozens of Winton's "children" have been found and to this day his family has grown to almost 6,000 people, many of whom have gone on to achieve great things themselves.
Leave your thoughts about Nicky's Family.
| The New RepublicStanley KauffmannIn addition to the force and the officialdom, dizzying and stark, there are particularly sharp stabs of feeling. |
| New York TimesAnita GatesAn enthralling documentary by Matej Minac... |
| Detroit NewsTom LongToo much time is spent with survivors or Winton speaking to schoolchildren, or revisiting the place where this or that happened. Why not just talk to Winton himself? |
| Mark Leeper's ReviewsMark R. LeeperNot as dismal as other stories from Holocaust documentaries. There are many positive notes. |
| Boston HeraldJames VerniereA true story about an ordinary person, who turned out to be an extraordinary human being when it counted the most. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakNicky's story is now accessible and for that the film is a grand success. |
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohA great true story and a great man come together in this real heart-warmer of a documentary. |
| NewsdayJohn AndersonWhat's nettlesome about director Matej Minac's clunkily constructed documentary is what it says about our perverse but understandable need to spin some kind of happy ending onto the Holocaust. |
| Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckAlthough suffering from cheesy historical reenactments, this inspirational Holocaust-themed documentary recount a story that deserves to be more widely known. |
| NOW TorontoRadheyan SimonpillaiHe's been dubbed "Britain's Schindler." However, instead of the Spielberg treatment, Nicky's Family gives Winton something more like a Heritage Minute, complete with kitschy, misbegotten re-enactments. |
