–Comment: 3 boys, maybe scouts probably THW boys (Technisches Hilfwerk), one is an older teen boy, in buckskin Lederhosen without suspenders and 2 zippers. Also cycling. Rather few scenes.

Another short educational movie from the 16mm channel. Directed by Rudi Hornecker. Profil-Film Frank Tietz (Köln). I also found another upload called "Ein Wald klagt an (1962)" but in lower quality 240p. According filmportal and other sources, 1960 release should be correct and 1960+1962 were presentations and 1962 one film competition. Filmed in 1959. Originally in 35 mm. Plot is about fire. Maybe 1960 is the runtime 19.6 minutes or reel length? Elsewhere it's 1954. (2 reels).

Nice but few good scenes. Rating ~4-5.

Some behind the scene photos (b&w) with more boys here (claiming to be filmed in Summer 1961)

–Comment: Some young boys in mainly smooth finished or nappa Lederhosen. Mainly without suspenders. One boy sitting inside at 9 (with suspenders). Some very good rear views. Pic 1 at 12, pic 2 (my favourite scene) thin and chubby boy (also front) at 6. Set in and around Duisburg, Germany. Also in Soccer shorts. Unpictured: standing on wall, rear view at 13.

Has been aired on Friday on ARD Alpha in the alpha retro series. As usual not available in the mediathek, but I found it on the ARD mediathek, but channel WDR. "Der kleine Fußball" via Google. "WDR Retro". Maybe there are some more treasures there.

Rating ~6-7.
