I saw the movie when I was still a young kid (younger than Heintje in the movie) in China and honestly couldn't remember much other than it's a nice movie. But the song "Kleine Kinder, kleine Sorgen" from this movie was my favorite. So beautiful and pure, its rhythms always makes me happy. On my 9th birthday, my parents called the local radio station for the song as my birthday present - still the most memorable birthday present I've ever received. So many years had passed and I sometimes wish I am still the "kleine Kinder" that I used to be, with "kleine Sorgen". They really should make more beautiful, loving, non-violent movies for today's children. It seems that most people commenting on the movie are Chinese. Was it popular in Germany when it was released in the 70's?
