-Comment: At least one member of the gang (of 10-13 year olds) I think Heiner Beeker (pictured), maybe 12 or 13 yo in dark brown short and tight smooth finish or nappa Lederhosen, 2 zippers, no suspenders but worn with a belt. One other in similar tight shorts, but I don't know if Lederhosen or cotton fabric, maybe dark blue cotton shorts.

Probably one of the most famous German kids' adventure movies of the 70s. There is also a modern version and a sequel, but I think I haven't seen those yet but I don't assume Lederhosen in there.

Famous novel by Max von der Grün, also starring Martin Semmelrogge, Wolfgang Sieling, Marie-Luise Marjan and Eberhard Feik.

Probably most of the readers will like this. I prefer Heimatfilms and Lederhosen with suspenders. And I also hate the 70s (also included here other clothing like flared jeans and typical colors yellow and brown). One boy is even played by a girl. Een a peeing scene with him/her. However quite exciting family film. And finally released on DVD. Good atmosphere, tree house, etc. I wonder how could I miss this movie.

Rating 6-7 for Lederhosen scenes. But I wouldn't buy it and wait for the next TV broadcasting.
