About The Kidnappers


After losing their father in the Boer War, orphaned brothers Harry (Jon Whiteley) and Davy (Vincent Winter) must leave their home in Scotland to live with their grandmother (Jean Anderson) and cantankerous grandfather (Duncan Macrae) in Nova Scotia. The boys want nothing more than a pet dog, but their grandfather refuses to get them one. Then, when the brothers find an abandoned baby, they decide to keep it -- but the foundling may not have been abandoned after all.
