Die Reise nach Sundevit

Tim, the son of a lighthouse keeper, meets a group of Free German Youth Pioneers in the Baltic dunes. They invite him to spend the rest of the summer holidays with them at Cape Sundevit. But Tim has to run an errand first, which takes longer than expected because people keep asking him for help. He misses the group's departure, so the ten-year-old boy sets out alone, on foot and hitchhiking, hoping to catch up with his new friends before the ferry sail. (Berlinale)
