The Most Precious of Cargoes

In a world ravaged by war and poverty, a desperate woodcutter's life is forever changed when his wife rescues an abandoned baby girl from one of the many trains that rumble through their forest home. The young girl, a Holocaust survivor with a harrowing past, will bring hope and hardship in equal measure to those around her, including the father who discarded her on the train tracks. As they navigate the treacherous landscape of war-torn Europe, their story reveals both the worst and best in human hearts, in this powerful animated drama based on Jean-Claude Grumberg's 2019 novel.
