The experience of the Kindertransport during World War II was not unique to the Jewish people. Making the life-shattering choice of giving up one's children is a choice that people are forced to make repeatedly. Set between post-revolutionary Cuba and post-9/11 America, Sonia Flew explores the powerful tale of Sonia, a Cuban-American woman smuggled as a child out of Cuba and into the United States as part of Operation Pedro Pan. Sonia, married to a Jewish man and in a world filled with Jewish traditions, must reconcile with her memories of that time when she and thousands of other Cuban children were separated from their parents. Both the Cuban and Jewish experiences share the issues of guilt, anger and forgiving the past in order to move on.
