–Comment: At least this boy in a rare blue/white striped sailor suit. Probably more kids. Also ladies with sailor style dresses and collars.

I haven't found a stream yet. So needs to be checked later.

Rating ~5 for now for sailor suit, movie itself maybe higher. 

Plot is about Sweden's first female pilot Elsa Andersson. So I assume rather few scenes of kids. Director Jan Troell. Main plot in early 1920s, probably also some earlier scenes. Pilot was born in 1897 and died in 1922.

English title: As White as in Snow. Simplified title Sa vit som en sno.

–Comment: Happy New Year! I found some parts on my VHS. At least some parts are available online. Luckily I found the title as I had the text "Bleib fröhlich und lustig ein Knab in Steinfeld". First 0 Google hits, but then I found it under Oper Steinfeld.

Some young boys (of a 1880s boys choir) in light grey buckskin Lederhosen with H-style suspenders. Open jackets.

I don't know the full opera. I assume rather few scenes. 

3h opera by Friedrich Cerha. Novel by Peter Turrini. Based on a tale. 

And young boys. So rating ~3-(4).
