Adventure, Family, Fantasy

The puppet boy Turli, who was only recently been carved from wood by the toymaker Kasimir, suddenly springs to life. Turli has nothing but nonsense on his mind and wreaks chaos everywhere he goes, although he is actually supposed to attend school.

Plot

Toymaker Kasimir had hardly finished carving the puppet Turli before he comes alive and starts causing unintentional mischief by skipping school and creating chaos at the puppet theater. Turli is finally caught by the evil Muriel, who turns lazy children into donkeys and makes them work for him. The fairy Euphrosina helps Turli escape so he can first rescue Kasimir, who was swallowed by a fish while looking for him, and then save the other children from Muriel's clutches. As a reward, Turli becomes a real boy.
