This is a short film set during World War 2 in Germany with racial themes surrounding two boys. One of them is Heinrich and the other is David, and he is Jewish. They are friends, and they often play the piano together. Heinrich's mother hopes this situation continues, but realistically it can't be continued because David is Jewish. Heinrich is told that David will go to Toyland, and he wants to go there with David. In reality, only David, is taken, and Heinrich is unable to go with him. However, thanks to some quick thinking by Heinrich's mother, David can escape capture. This story is gripping, and both tragic and heartwarming. I was especially moved by Heinrich's mother's actions. Also, the characteristic of this film is that the timeline is depicted in a disjointed manner, rather than simply arranging events in a straightforward manner. There is no dialogue in the last scene, but I think it's a highlight, so please watch until the end.
