Winston Churchill: Walking with Destiny

“Walking With Destiny” delves into the period when Churchill was sidelined in politics, highlighting his early resistance to Adolf Hitler and the Nazi ideology, as well as his advocacy for Jews endangered by the Nazi regime. Historian John Lukacs points out that while Churchill might not have secured victory in the War in 1940, his absence would have almost certainly led to defeat. Sir Martin Gilbert, the film’s historical consultant and Churchill’s official biographer, suggests that if Churchill’s early warnings about Nazi Germany’s racial policies against Jews had been heeded in the 1930s, the Holocaust might have been averted. The film investigates the enduring significance of Winston Churchill’s legacy in the 21st century and examines why his leadership continues to inspire today’s political leaders and diplomats.
