This is the story of the rescue of 700 children from occupied Poland and their grueling journey to Palestine (now Israel) in the winter of 1943. This unprecedented operation took the children, many without their parents, on a tortuous path that led them to distant lands, including Teheran, before they arrived safely in Palestine. For the Jewish settlement, the Children of Teheran were the first survivors of the Holocaust who attested to the horrors of war-torn Europe.

The Children of Teheran is availlable on DVD, including a map of the journey, with English narration, or Hebrew (with English subtitles). Package includes a special booklet containing the historical background to the journey of the Children of Teheran. You can also order a special screening of the movie followed by a lecture on the journey of the Children of Teheran.
