Boys from Paul Street

Budapest, the beginning of the twentieth century.

Boys from Paul Street spend all free time on the wasteland. This is their secret shelter, a place for games and a military headquarters. They have a general, officers and one for all the private - the little boy Erne Nemeckes.

When the enemies - boys from the botanical garden - decided to capture the wasteland, everyone stood up to defend their homeland. But this is only a war - Ponaroshka, and courage, friendship, resentment, betrayal and cruelty are real.

Can boys be able to defend a wasteland? How will the scout dipping in cold water turn into? Can everything be fixed, or is repentance too belated?

A very sincere and sad story about childhood and growing up. Classics of world children"s literature. The story was translated into 42 languages, several films were shot on it
