Buratino, Son of Pinocchio
Buratino and his mother Maria Carlo live on the poor side of the town called GoodBad that is split into two by a wall. Buratino goes to an awful school. Most of his days are filled with acting fools and making music together with his friends Artemon, Pierrot and Toivo. Maria has not told her son the mystery behind his strange origin yet. Evil Carabas Barabas lives in the highest skyscraper of the rich part of the town and searches for the boy who has magic powers with what one can govern the world. The chase brings Buratino together with Malvina, the blue-haired daughter of Carabas. Buratino falls in love with her at first sight. Carabas Barabas and his faithful followers Duremar, Cat, and Fox won't give up their plans - that means a life-and-death struggle.
The musical trash comedy full of explosions and songs is especially targeted at young people suffering from their teenage years.
