Ottokar der Weltverbesserer
Ottokar, the World Reformer
1977 · Released · 86 min
Eleven-year-old Ottokar is in fifth grade and can't stand one thing: injustice. He always interferes, wants to help and is reprimanded for it. When he came home from fishing with his best friend Sigi on the last day of the holiday, he saw a crying child who had just dropped his toy boat into the water and drifted away. Ottokar wants to borrow a rowing boat from a private jetty to get the toy out of the water, but is verbally abused by the boat owner. So he jumps into the water, fully dressed. Although the bystanders now turn against the boat owner, as Ottokar intended, he has to explain the cause of the wet things to his parents.
