The Wind Knows My Name begins with the story of Samuel Adler, a young Austrian Jew who, after a "night of broken windows", is sent by his mother to England through the Kindertransport programme that saved thousands of children during the Holocaust; he will never see his family again.
Eighty years later, Anita Díaz boards a train with her mother to escape the threat in El Salvador and seek asylum in the United States, but their arrival at the Mexican border coincides with a new government policy that separates them, leaving Anita alone.
