Completely based on true events, this movie shows how a jewish family was able to just barely escape germany, thereby preventing being locked up in a concentration camp and facing a certain death.
What makes this movie very relevant is that it shows the way the jewish family was received by people in the places and countries they fled to. To think that it was only the nazi germans that discriminated and blamed the jewish people during the 1930's, is shown to be a wrong assumption.
It is very interesting to see this story being told by what the youngest daughter of the family experieced. I think the title is a good example of what decisions this girl had to take and how she personally saw those decisions: e.g. "why can't I take my favorite pluche rabbit?".
Considering that it is not easy to produce a movie that has as a small child in the main role, I think the result is excellent. The cinematography, vehicles, clothing and sets were all of such high quality that you really deem yourself in the 1930's.
Concluding, I think this movie deserves a score of 8.1/10, thereby easily making an 8-star IMDb rating. If you decide to watch this movie, I also recommend that you search the internet on what happened with the family after the war ended: I guarantee that you will surprised and/or impressed by all the achievements.
