An inspiring story of survival and determination

Tony, a three year old boy, was enjoying a happy childhood on a farm in Eastern Poland where he lived with his parents and three brothers, when the start of World War II put an abrupt end to his carefree existence.

Shortly after his father left home to join the Polish Army, Tony, his mother and brothers were taken from their home at gunpoint and deported thousands of kilometres away to Kazakhstan in the USSR.

'Alone' tells a story of how young Tony survived such a violent uprooting, what happened to his family and how he made a new life in New Zealand.

This is a story about the human capacity to overcome adversity.
