Somewhere in Europe
Not well known now, this tale of packs of Czech boys running wild in the aftermath of WW2 is considered an important post-war document. It's actually a carefully contrived piece of propaganda by the new socialist, Soviet-dominated government. A lonely orchestra conductor in a ruined castle symbolically saves the boys from vindictive ex-Nazi collaborators, thus paving the way for a new society. Facets Video.
