With no better offers to be had, famous American Civil War upstart officer George Armstrong Custer takes over the Western Cavalry maintaining the peace in the Dakotas. He soon learns that the U.S. treaties are a sham, that Indian lands are being stolen and every excuse for driving them off their hunting grounds is being encouraged. With his wife Elizabeth (Mary Ure) Custer goes in and out of favor in Washington, while failing to keep wildcatting miners like his own deserting Sergeant Mulligan (Robert Ryan) from running off to prospect for gold in Indian country. After trying to humble the prideful Indian warrior Sitting Bull (Kieron Moore), Custer leads the 7th Cavalry into defeat.

"La famille de Nicky" est l'histoire extraordinaire de Nicholas Winton, surnommé le Schnindler britannique, qui avant le début de la seconde guerre mondiale, entre mars et août 1939, a sauvé 669 enfants tchèques et slovaques, pour la plupart juifs, du génocide nazi. Le film mêle fiction, documents d'archives inédits, et témoignages émouvants des protagonistes de cette histoire, parmi lesquels Nicholas Winton en personne et Joe Schlesinger, journaliste à la CBC et narrateur du film. La "famille" de Nicholas Winton compte aujourd'hui plus de 5 000 personnes dans le monde entier, qui lui doivent la vie.

Quelques mois avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, une extraordinaire opération de sauvetage a arraché 10 000 enfants et adolescents juifs au régime nazi. Rapatriés en Grande-Bretagne pour être adoptés, ils durent tisser de nouveaux liens familiaux, supporter les bombardements pour certains, aller libérer leurs propres parents restés en Allemagne. Ils ont tous d'inoubliables histoires à raconter dans ce documentaire.
