The film is quite gripping in its attention to the bureaucratic hurdles and mind-boggling logistics that Nicky and soon his mother (Bonham Carter), a German-Jewish refugee herself, must surmount to start moving children to safety.

In the midst of war, one man's courage and compassion saved hundreds of lives. Based on a true story, One Life follows the journey of Nicholas Winton, a young British stockbroker who visits Czechoslovakia in the 1930s and is moved by the plight of Jewish children facing certain death under the Nazi regime. Determined to act, Nicholas organizes the rescue of 669 children, smuggling them out of the country to safety in England. But years later, haunted by the memory of those he could not save, Nicholas struggles to find peace.
