Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Into the Arms of Strangers: Stories of the Kindertransport is a 2000 documentary feature directed by Mark Jonathan Harris.It is the story of the Kindertransport, namely, the 1938-39 rescue of some 10,000 German, Austrian, and Czech Jewish children ("kinder") from the Nazis. The Kristallnacht anti-Jewish pogrom of November 1938 shocks the world and increases support in England for efforts to help Jewish people escape Germany. The government of Great Britain agrees to take in Jewish children, but only children, who will be sent out to foster families.Jewish families across Nazi Germany make the wrenching decision to send their children off to England. The children, initially relieved at escaping Hitler's clutches, must deal with separation from their parents and anxiety over their fates, while having to adjust to life in a foreign culture.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

comment
Day of the Jackboot: For German children living in Austria and Czechoslovakia, it comes with terrifying suddenness. An Austrian woman talks about how uniforms and swastika flags appeared out of nowhere.

The Ken Burns Effect

comment
The Ken Burns Effect: Used with pretty much every still picture in the movie, like when the camera pans across lines of Jews being arrested in Germany, or when the camera zooms out from a picture of a father to show his wife and daughter as well.

comment
Answer Cut: One woman says that she felt like she and her father were protecting her mother and sister, and then muses "I don't know what we were protecting them from." Then there's a cut to Stock Footage of Adolf Hitler, and the film starts talking about the Germans annexing Austria.
