Toyland is a very good short film about the story in Germany during World War 2. In the first scene, two boys Heinrich and David, are playing the piano together. David is Jewish. David and his parents will be forced to move to a concentration camp soon and they know that. Heinrich does not understand the situation and believes they are going to a good place "Toyland" because his mother told him that. So, he wishes to go to Toyland with David's family and packs up his things. On the day David is taken to the train station, Heinrich goes to the vehicle rounding people up to join, but he cannot go because he is not Jewish. However, Heinrich's mother notices he is gone and runs to the station to find her son.
She explains the situation and two men take her to the train. When the door opens, Heinrich is not there. David is there. She thinks a lot of things in a moment and pretends David is Heinrich because he will die if he goes to a concentration camp. His parents also think a lot of things to save their son, and so pretend their son is Heinrich just like Heinrich's mother does. As a result, David is taken to Heinrich's home and both of them get older together. In the last scene, we can see two old men (David and Heinrich) are playing the same song that they were playing in the first scene on the piano. I was really impressed with the story, especially when Heinrich's mother and David's parents pretend David is Heinrich to protect David. I think his parents want to say goodbye and I love you, but they didn't say that to protect him. I was saddened by the depiction of the door being closed quickly and forcefully.
