Lausbubengeschichten

Ludwig Thoma, a mischievous high school student in Munich, transforms each day into a series of harmless yet inventive pranks. His boundless energy is focused on playing tricks on stern teachers, outsmarting the school authorities, and creating cheerful chaos among his classmates. Set in late 19th-century Bavaria, behind a facade of prim discipline, the film reveals the vibrant pulse of childhood with its mischief, camaraderie, and first lessons in responsibility. Based on the autobiographical stories of writer Ludwig Thoma, it paints a warm, nostalgic portrait of carefree youth.
