'Toyland' is a short film. The main characters are Heinrich, a German, and David, a German Jew, who are best friends. One day, however, David's family is taken away to a camp. Heinrich's mother, unable to tell him the truth, lies to him that they are going to 'Toyland.' . But her words have the opposite effect, and Heinrich wishes that he could go, too. The next day, he follows David out of his mother's sight. On the morning of David family's removal, Marianne is upset to find that Heinrich is not there. She thinks that Heinrich must have been taken away with the family. She runs to the train station and begs the soldiers to let her son go home. Many things happen after this. This film is 13 minutes long. A lot happens in that short time. And this film is about the Holocaust, the genocide of the Jews. So this film is very much worth seeing.
