CURRENT COMPETITIONS
WIN A DOUBLE PASS TO ONE LIFE (PG)
Sight is giving away five double passes (for use in Australia only) to watch the film, One Life, in Australian cinemas from 26th December.
'One Life' tells the true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London broker played by Johnny Flynn, who, along with Trevor Chadwick (played by Alex Sharp) and Doreen Warinner (played by Romola Garai) of the British Committee for Refugees in Czechoslovakia, rescued 669 children from the Nazis in the months leading up to World War II,. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria, living in desperate conditions with little or no shelter and food, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realised it was a race against time. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed? Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky (played by Anthony Hopkins) lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England; always blaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a live BBC television show, ‘That’s Life!’, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children - now adults - that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.
To win one of five double passes to the film, simply send an email to editor@sightmagazine.com.au with 'One Life' in the subject line and tell us in 50 words or less why you'd like to see this film. Please include your name and postal address.
