There is a loud knock at the door. The Germans have arrived to take this Jewish family away. It is 1939 in Poland. The Huberman family were partly prepared and the three children escape through a secret passage. The two older children, 13 and 10 leave the baby at the Abbey and plan to go to family in Lodz, 20 kilometres away. The children are separated and start to make their own way. Can the Parents survive in a work camp? Will the children make it alone to Lodz? Who can they trust?
