What a sad yet remarkable story of a mother's bravery and courage for the children..a true hero
What a superb job by Linda lavin, my grandpa used to say, save a life and you save the world; where is humanity today???
Well it’s there when we stop being slaves to a corrupt system, the Nazis never left
Yes, I'm watching Putin & his war. Where is humanity today? SMH 😿😿
Amen and Amen to your grandpa❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Remember if you’re watching the news, they focus on awful things that people do.
Please, please, please focus on only the positive events around you. Humanity is still alive and loving and accepting each other is the most important part. 🥰
Democrats are the party of death . So no humanity if democrats keep power .
What a story. I had never heard of it. How brave and courageous they all were. Bless them!!!
These poor people...all they went through...and then the children...they suffered the most
The enormous tragedies and loss of family that these children had to endure, yet with Lena's and others help, finally reach safety. An astonishing story. Shows the strength of the human spirit.
The world will be a beautiful place if everyone have the hearts of this women. Sadly every where it's opposite. 😭😭😭
One bows down in reverence at the courage of this amazing woman. God’s Grace was with her & the blessed children. May they have grown & multiples raised beautiful families be my prayer for them.
To get to hold, comfort, feed, bless, & help heal those beautiful children! What a beautiful gift she was given & received!❤🌹❤ I got a couple broken babies out of a meth house! The recovery years were trying, exhausting & beyond taxing! At times scary, our best dog poisoned etc! But I got the meth house closed, prosecutions happened & the babies got saved! Much recovery happened in the first year, though still in visits with abusers for a few years. They are now adults & planning their weddings & futures! It took all of me, & probably took years off my life! I would do it all again in a heart beat! Some of the adults even ended up in recovery!
Bless you and heartfelt thanks!! You are an angel walking on earth. Wishing you all the very best!
God bless you.
@@judibiggerstaff8054 HE has indeed!❤️ Thank you
This film should be required for all high school students along with so many other films!!!! This is something I wasn't aware of when the war ended as this wasn't brought up in school or any of the books that I had read about the Holocaust. For kids and adults to have suffered through the Holocaust and then to suffer the agony, heartache, torture, beatings, physical and verbal abuse, starvation, lack of employment, housing, food, etc after the war is horrendous!!!!The ignorance of the Holocaust to this day is astounding and extremely frightening😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Inspiring movie of a woman who gave what she could and didn't let others opinions interfere with her conviction. Is this type of insight missing in today's world? I think giving to others that have less and are disadvantaged is the only way we can make the harshness of the past bearable. But it doesn't mean we overlook the tragedy of the Holocaust and those who were victimized by ruthless and self-serving men and women all of whom were criminals acting out their hateful prejudices.
Unfortunately are government is trying to indoctrinate our children in public school across the country with communist/satanist teachings many schools no longer teach the Holocaust instead how to be transgender or hate your parents and country we must know are history so we don’t repeat what’s bad
That was EXTREMELY well said, if only more could be as thoughtful
Absolutely correct... I never knew that even after the war, they had to still suffer and still hated by so many
@@Jasonnn17 Don’t you agree, it was a time where humanity just evaporated, just think of a plan to just pick a segment of the public & like a factory at work, they are kicked out of their house, everything is taken, lined up in the street, herded away onto a train, stripped naked & marched into their death & w in an hour, they are ashes, it’s mind numbing & where does hate on this level generate from????
It is just unreal & ya, after WW2 you figured things calmed down, but no, they dealt w “collaborators”, AKA people trying to adapt & survive, the random raping that went on & switch gears to the Batan Death March, 50-60 miles & if u stopped for water, you were killed, it simply BLOWS my mind & there are so many layers to it, how bout the kids born of German rapes, I’ll bet their lives were impacted from Day 1, you couldn’t make this up in Hollywood, but it happened 75 years ago (seems like I used to say 40-50) haha
This is the kind of Movie/info the children should be required to watch, read and learn! This is reality. This is not self indulgent, self righteous or entitlement. Perhaps we can reach into our childrens souls with the real compassion and understanding they should be being taught! It won't happen but I can sure put the seed out for it!!
Thank you for making the film and uploading it on UA-cam. The survival of these children is wonderful.
The most beautiful movie that I have ever seen so heart warming and also very sad she was an amazing woman
The trauma of the Jewish children is not often talked about. This was an excellent depiction of that, and the acting was very well done by all.
There is a Canadian medical doctor called Gabor Mate, who talks on UA-cam about his Mother's and his own trauma from the danger in 1940's Hungary and being separated from his Mother, when she gave him to strangers. He has helped a lot of people in his work.
Gabor Maté CM (born January 6, 1944) is a Canadian physician. He has a...special interest in childhood development, trauma... (Wikipedia).
An amazing depiction of true social work 😊 advocacy, compassion, hard work, and love for others ❤
The harsh reality of hatred, greed power and control. Many children still suffer today because of whom they are ..
My next door neighbour Mr boroski as a child told me about some of his experiences when he was a boy in concentration camp and those stories have never left me
This is a true movie to call a sound of freedom, beautiful
Thank you for the great movie.
Everyone should watch this movie.
❤
Thank you, I didn't know the children faced so much hatred and persecution after the war. It beggars belief 💔😭.
How could you not know? Did you not go to school?
@aussiemouth747 yes, I did, but we weren't taught that. Like many other things that were not told. And not just in my native land, but in my adopted land. You were fortunate, you learnt that at school. God bless you 🙏🏻
Yes, I did go to school. Where else could've learnt to read and write...more than one language? You'd be surprised how many historical facts have been left out (or modified) of school, college, and university written material 👌
This 60s 70s 80s stuff is GOLD because the Holocaust was in living memory for so many and they did their best to record it.
And the depression and WW2.😢
THANK YOU LENA, FOR YOUR INCREDIBLE COURAGE ❤ ♥ 💖, DETERMINATION, WIT, STRENGTH, ❤, BUT ABOVE ALL LENA,BEAUTIFUL LENA, THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR BELIEF, FAITH AND LOVE ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ IN GOD.
AMEN 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank you for sharing this amazing true story of such courage in times of desperation…God was surely on their side
A stunning movie with and rough journey going home and a very brave young woman who loved 100 children.
These children survived the war, and now with the help of a courageous woman they are able to survive and thrive in a postwar Poland. The stark realities are heart rending and give one pause for serious thought. Well acted and scripted. Brilliant. Academy award winning stuff.
This is the 2nd time ive seen this movie. Im heartbroken to know how innocent children were so very mistreated,murdered starved and persecuted. To be fired upon for just trying to survive because of hatred and prejudice is appalling .bless this womans precious soul and others who assisted in delivering these innocent children to a better and safer life they deserved. Its shocking that this could even happen in our History,but it did. We must never forget the mistakes of the past so as not to ever make them again and give honor and respect to those who survived and to those who didnt. God has seen his angels to protect his own. 🙏
Like the children murdered in Gaza...
A very painful story, but full of hope ❤ Only God can take the life of anyone's thee created😢
It's a very touchy subject, so many victims are still suffering... My heart and prayers go out to the Jewish people...
Thank you for this story of courage,love and hope.
that was beautiful, God was truly with them on their journey ,, God bless them always ,
Being of the Jewish faith, this film had a profound effect on me emotionally. Thank God through the persistence Of Lena these children were finally released from the daily terrors. I cannot fathom what terrible ordeals they had to endure. Lena Kuchler was put on the earth to be a savior to these children. That was her calling in life. One of the most captivating films I have ever watched. Linda Lavin and the other actors were incredible. BRAVO to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It took me more that 25 years to find this movie. I saw it went I have maybe 12 years old. Since then, the whole picture of post-war childhood haunted me. Thank you very much for sharing it with us!
Wonderful movie, this woman had the grace of God. Bravo Mrs. Lavin you did a very good job, great acting from every ones also.
Such a beautiful story! So much history that can not be forgotten! Was talking with my grandkids this evening! This is a movie I can let them watch at 12, 10, & 9. If we don't learn history & teach it to our young, then we are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past! GOD BLESS all who stand for FREEDOM! Content of Character not color of skin! Struck me that growing up in the 60s-70s all the jokes & disparaging comments & racism was strongly projected at the Polish! I never got it, why were they so bad & stupid that it took so many to screw in a light bulb! Lol Propaganda, regardless of race or creed! Was telling my grandaughter, blonde with darker skin, when friends at school discussed her coloring, that were need to learn more about her maternal lineage! Her Mom is 50% Cuban. Beautiful young Iady, but was adopted & knows only a little about birth parents, & heritage! My grandson is the spitting image of her biological Dad & I was blessed to get pictures with them both when he was an infant! The grandfather cried when I asked if I could have a picture of them! ❤ He wasn't able to parent his numerous kids, but he clearly cared! Always wanted to chat with him more! He & others like him could easily warn us about current events in major nations at the moment! GOD BLESS ALL who stand for FREEDOM & especially the innocent!
I agree but why can't Humanity ever learn? They just keep making the same mistakes over an over again : (
There will always be hatred unless the love of God changes people’s hearts
WE MUST STAND FOR FREEDOM!!
WHAT A GREAT MOVIE !! ❤
This is the 5th times watching this incredible true story and I can only say that where we see obstacles our God sees possibilities. Thank You Lord!
I am so glad they had the promised land to flee to and the Lords angels to hide and protect them.His mercy endures forever. Hallelujah!
And never ending persecution even there! The battle for FREEDOM in Israel is a fascinating story! Brock & Bodie Thoene have numerous books written on the subject! Fiction, but based on factual stories! They still face much persecution today, & way too many who believe they only deserve to be shoved into the sea! G D HAVE MERCY!
The British worked hard to prevent jews from settling in their ancestral land. It is a mark of shame for them. Yes read the books by Thoene, "the Zion Chronicles"; you will understand the world better.
Such a beautiful deeply sad film times of such cruel times one day god will give you all that time that was sadly taken away Amen 🙏 X
Amen
How will He give me? The time that was taken away?
HE promises to restore what the locust have eaten, & HE is not a G D that would lie!
@@almeggs3247 HE promises to restore it all! HE says we won't understand it all, but seek HIM in all our ways, HE knows the desires of our hearts! We may or may not see it in this present time, but we are guaranteed to see it in Heaven! Everything, Everyone that was stolen will be made whole! HE promised me 50 yrs ago as a small child hiding in closet crying out to HIM, why? Why me? HE answered we wouldn't understand it all, but HE would never leave us or forsake us! People tried to take my life repeatedly, starting quite young! It hasn't been always easy, but HE has blessed me in the midst of the worst storms & even pow experience! HE knit you in your mother's womb & has a special purpose for you! The choice is yours, HE is quite the gentleman in that regard! But when we separate from HIS Covenants, that causes us to be taken from HIS umbrella of protection so to say, not that HE can't still save, but HE does respect our choice in the matter! Keep seeking HIM, Peace & Shalom!
And I was born in 1948, so I have this to celebrate the year of their freedom with them XOXO
Amazing movie,God bless them ❤️
I wonder if any of those children are alive today? How grateful they must of felt for Lena saving them.
Some are still alive- in their 80s
My cousin works as a health aid for one of them shes 88
Wow! What a great movie! I bless my stars that I wasn’t born than. I don’t think I’d have the courage Lena had.
Although if I was put in that situation and that time period I probably would have the courage and guts to get those kids to safety
@@ellenroux5748 I know you would.....God gives us the courage.
You do what you have to do! History repeats! And those who don't understand it are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past! We are seeing a repeat of 1933 Germany in Canada today, and I say UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL! The only way to deal with bullies to is to stand, in whatever way requires! I would rather fall by the consequences, then live with the guilt of letting or even aiding by silence for evil to prosper! If we don't speak up or act, who will? And who will be the victim next? GOD BLESS
@@sherrystacyrn589 isn't that the truth! Have stood against huge drunk & raging mental cases, & GOD persevered & guided my every step & word! And some of those aggressors ended up in treatment & recovery! This same thing ( The Holocaust) can happen anywhere, anytime! We are subject to what we allow, & our rights to Freedom & Liberty comes first from our Creator/ELOHIM/GOD! We often have to or are called to stand to preserve it! Have a blessed day!
TISSUE ALERT: 10 tissues! One of the best movies ever. We must learn to LOVE one another, especially CHILDREN! ❤ 🧒👶👼🧑🍼👨🍼👩🍼 "But whosover shall cause one of these little ones who believe in Me to fall, it were better for him that a millstone were hung about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." [Matt 18:6]
Takes one courageous woman to make a difference in 100 children of God a very moving story of faith....
God is good !!!! The children were saved. Thank you for sharing this awesome true story ! ❣❣
True? 1 Poland wasn't in Civil War
Soldiers will never give civilian guns
Jewish wasn't been bad treating after War like not before
@Anna K
Poland was fighting for independence well into the 1960s.
Yes, soldiers gave them guns and yes, Jews were treated horrendously after the war.
But of course, being an anti semite, you would deny all this.
These childent were saved, more than 1 million were killed (just Jews, not talking about hundred of thousands of different origins). Anyways, GOD has nothing to do here.
@@annak8262 I'm Jewish and yu're right.
@@KC-pw4nn You don'nt know the History. I'm jewish and the comment of @Anna K is true
What a beautiful movie about courage, hope, persistence ... the list goes on.
God Bless Lena and her legacy. ♥
What a beautiful movie I really love this film...thanks to the cast Ang the producers...shalom
Thanks for posting! I hadn't seen this movie in over 30 years.
There were a lot of heroes with regards to world war 2. This is a part of history I can't do away with.
Didnt realize this was about hatred. It still exists today. people ae human and should treat each other with respect regardless of race colour or creed. If this was a true story then it was amazing. They went through so much horror but reached home
Yes, this was Lena Kuchler-Silberman's account of her journey of getting 100 Jewish orphans out of Poland to Israel.
Incorrect laurel. It is a story about getting children to palestine. She says as much in the movie, it was scripted, dont change history.
It is a true story
I recommend that everyone should read the book, “The Boy on the Wooden Box” written by Leon Lyson. It’s an amazing book about what he and the other Jews suffered during that terrible time. I’ve read it twice and I’ve bought quite a few copies to give to other people, but I’m sure that it could be borrowed from the public library.
Depends on the city and state that they're living in.
Hi am from Trinidad I don't have the book can you get me one am looking at the movie right now
What did you like so much about the book? I'm reading reviews on Amazon and many buyers comment that the book lack of details of the nazi era and spend much time talking about all he accomplished in USA.
A heart-wrenching story.
Freedom and peace has cost so much for so many.
The hope and the promise and the price of freedom is a double-edged sword.
God bless the people of Israel. The fight is not over. It seems that hate burns in the hearts of so many for the people who seek to survive and flourish in peace and harmony.
Stay strong.
Great movie and deserves better viewing experience. Please address the picture quality.
So needed to see This at This time !!! Thank You
So very true my friend …
Are we awake yet🕊
Wonderful, heart wrenching movie. I love it....but, someone needs to label it as a Tissue Alert Movie......
After surviving a war with all its terror, the children had to face ongoing hate. Baruch HaShem for the miracle that saved them. Today the Israelis still face so much anti semitism. May HaShem have mercy and protect His people !
Omen! GLORY HALLELUJAH, HE promises to restore what the locust have eaten! ELOHIM BLESS ISRAEL & JERUSALEM 🇮🇱 HE who watches over you never slumbers or sleeps!
The children of the 12 tribes still suffer to this day. The Promised Land is SO beautiful and was parted into dozens of countries. One day the 12 tribes will get back there!
@@QuestionThingsUseLogic Definitely
@@cristineconnell7803 did you know there is more than one Jerusalem? Or that the land was NEVER called isRAel? Only the people were. The land was always called the PROMISED LAND. :-)
Yes , today antisemitism is about to take over again . Baruch HaShem because despite all the present and past hate hurt and suffering , He will never forsake
his beloved people .
A compelling, lovely story of a brave strong woman and her brave kids. Superbly portrayed.
God bless 🙌 her heartbreaking racist so sad all they went through may god have blessed them 🙏 😊
such a beautiful and sad movie that I have been watching for a long time
Thank you I wonder how many mre stories like this were out there and true.
Not enough.
What brave men attacking a group of defenseless children --- right......... I have never been able to understand blind hatred.
Lovely Piano 🎹 Linda Lavin😊🛡️♀️🎼🌐 Children are a blessing from God!
Amen! 💖❤️💞🥰🙏🙏🙏
Wow what a Great compassion to the children! 🥰💞❤️💖
Intense and very well cast. A good one with important information.
God will lead His people home.......Thank you Jesus Christ for your mercy & forgiveness and grace.....All glory to GOD !
Very sad film the atrocities these Jewish proud people suffered . I hope they can forever live in peace ☮️ 🙏🏻
Outstanding. Thank you.
All these actors and children too, so skinny 🤔
Seeing those ignorant "men", hounding them down on horseback, reminds me of the movie, Planet of the Apes.
Terrifying and cruel.
Humans are more resilient than we can sometimes appreciate.
Lena had survive the war to care for these children.
Maranatha 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
By GOD GRACE!
I dont understand all these ugly comments on this movie about an awful time in a war that almost destroy one people . it dosent matter what you are we all need love. Has everyone forgot that Jesus was a jew and he died for all God Bless this lady .
Wonderful woman! This story reveal for me that hate is the worse illnes!
I wish that people learn that beeing different is nor beeing worse, that we can learn from each others historyes and traditions and that with respect for others people and gentile curiosity for what they are and good thinks who they can bring în our lifes we can make the world a better place for all of us.
Beautiful...
Thank you.
I think that this is a wonderful example of kindness and CHARITY IT doesn't matter whether we are Jews or any other people we are all GOD'S CREATION
What a testament to the human spirit. Such courage in the most trying circumstances!
Thank you for uploading this entertaining, heartwarming and wonderful picture! Mazeltav!
One could only imagine the horrifying feeling of an adult surviving the Holocaust and then experiencing postwar antisemitism, how much more an abandoned child..
God bless these beautiful children. It was a great injustice what happened to the Jewish people throughout the second world war. I pray this never happens again. Although I fear as a Catholic it is already happening to Christians in many places in the world at present.
And evil men always do their wicked deeds in darkness as they serve the prince of darkness!
What a beautiful soul Lena had. ❤
Amazing how GOD rescued His children. God be praised
Th triumph of the human spirit over all odds against them. Such courage displayed! Surely God was with them May we be as selfless and courageous in our day as Lena was in hers.
Thank you!!!!!
Excellent seeing our past... May We learn from it?..🇬🇧
wow, no one ever talked about or wrote about the trauma of the children right after the war. I thought I had read everything possible about the holocaust and this was a great eye opener.
This was a great movie..
Excellent. Well done.
Excellent moving movie.
Great picture of a person struggle and over come
Grown men against children..what a disgrace
God Bless all the children they finally reached their destination in the Promised Land Hallelujah
One person can make a difference.
See "The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler."
@@tebelshaw9486 Yes !!! and others hisories about thausents jewish sawed by Polish people.
Linda was a horribly underrated performer
Seen this movie before I can never fathom the courage lena and her children went through ...
Great 👌 movie 🎥🍿🎥
omg I remembered watching this move with my grandma.
Eu li o livro. O filme é fiel aos fatos narrados no livro. Belíssima produção!!!Eu chorei!!!!! Tenho 75 anos . Foi publicado em Tel Aviv em 1962. Foi Publicado em português no Brasil em 1974.
Sou de São Paulo - Brasil.
Beautiful movie
How can people say it was a lie with all these testimonies
Superb ❤
Wow What A Movie 👍
I had no idea of this part of history … excellent movie
Wow!!! What an amazing story. I had no idea the hardships the Jews faced even after the war was over.
And still do, unfortunately Laurel.
Absolut superb !👍😍
