Sweden, 1950s. Ingemar, ten years old, lives with his sick mother, his brother Erik and their dog. Full of vitality, adventures always happen to him. In the summer, he is sent to his uncle where he rediscovers all his joy of life and where he feels at home in a village populated by nice crazy people…

« Witty, touching, and perceptive as he contrasts the rural village and its strange but generous-hearted eccentrics with the harsher realities of the city, Hallström makes it a seamless mix of tragedy and humour. » (Time Out)

« Not just another charming film about growing up, but an expertly directed tale that takes a small, simple subject and colors it with invention and inspiration. » (TV Guide Magazine)
