Story
Praga, 1939. Eva è una giovane madre con un segreto che la tormenta. Quando i nazisti invadono la Cecoslovacchia, sa bene che l'unico modo per proteggere sua figlia è quello di mandarla lontano, al sicuro. Anche a costo di non rivederla mai più. Eva viene così deportata in un campo di concentramento, dove gli orrori e le continue sofferenze non fanno che mettere il suo segreto in pericolo giorno dopo giorno. Intanto, a Londra, Pamela è tra le volontarie che si occupano di trovare una casa ai bambini ebrei in fuga dall'Europa centrale.
