Berlin 1942.
When Bruno
returns home from school one day, he discovers that his belongings are being
packed in crates. His father has received a promotion and the family must move
from their home to a new house far, far, away, where there is no one to play
with and nothing to do. A tall fence running alongside stretches as far as the
eye can see and cuts him off from the strange people he can see in the
distance.
But Bruno longs to be an explorer and decides that
there must be more to this desolate new place than meets the eye. While
exploring his new environment, he meets another boy whose life and
circumstances are very different to his own, and their meeting results in a
friendship that has devastating consequences.
