Description

In our difficult modern life when social difference and inequality cause even children to be submitted to undeserved humiliation, two kids of different fates shall touch this lonely old man's strange and interesting world of spiritual richness. The kid's spiritual growth - the realization of true human kindness and the choice of justice to falsehood and lie are moral messages of this film. Mark Twain's novel becomes a character in the story and establishes direct connections with modern society; thus the story of the two boys turns into modern parable of good and evil.
