Plot synopsis
A screen version of the fairy-tale of the same name by Alexey Tolstoy based on Italian fairy-tales. Karlo, a poor organ-grinder, makes Buratino, a speaking, long-nosed little man from a simple chock. Having escaped from his home Buratino found himself in a world of evil and brutal beings, was beat and outwitted not once, but he kept up his courage, betrayed nobody and always remembered his father’s goodness. In the end Buratino got a golden key and opened for his friend a secret door that led to a country where only good and fair people lived.
