Based on a true story, Fanny's Journey is an incredible
tale of bravery, strength and survival, a story of a
daring young girl who will stop at nothing. In 1943,
13-year old Fanny and her younger sisters were sent
from their home in France to an Italian foster home for
Jewish children. When the Nazis arrive in Italy, their
caretakers desperately organize the departure of the
children to Switzerland. When they are suddenly left
on their own, these 11 children do the impossible and
reach the Swiss border to freedom.
