The movie

Like most children, young Pauline likes to play with matches and hiding in the attic. In that kind of scary but so fascinating a world, she can fathom her own. One day, as she opens her copy of "Struwwelpeter" (a popular book for kids in Germany), out comes a lighter, glittering in front of her, as in one of the tales. "Feuerspiel" is a fantasy picture about children's world of dreams.
