The Train of Childhood and Expectation (1989)

Why do people like returning to their childhood in their memories? Most probably because seen through children's eyes, the world is better and merrier than as adults perceive it. Close before the outburst of World War II, little Vera, accompanied by her widowed father and stepmother, boards a train which is never to return to the North Moravian village from which it departs. The inventiveness and indomitable optimism of her near and dear ones see her through the hard war time.
