The classic tale of a journey through war-torn Europe.

Alone and fending for themselves in a Poland devastated by World War Two, Jan and his three homeless friends cling to the silver sword as a symbol of hope.

This extraordinarily moving account of an epic journey gives a remarkable insight into the reality of a Europe laid waste by war.
