The Boys of Paul Street
The most extraordinary battle ever fought by the bravest army that ever had to be home for dinner.
Directed by Zoltán Fábri
Produced by Groskopf
A nostalgic, warmly comedic coming-of-age story about rival teenage gangs in turn-of-the-century Budapest, balancing boyish adventure with genuine stakes and camaraderie.
In turn-of-the-century Budapest, teenage gangs the Paul Street Boys and the Red Shirts have been skirmishing over a vacant lot. When the Red Shirts decide to drive the Paul Street Boys out, they appoint small, sickly Nemescek to spy on their opponents.
