The Mystery of Green Hill (2017) 10

Croatia | 2017 | 81 min.

Koko and his friends are spending summer vacation on the shores of a lake near the idyllic Green Hill, hanging out and playing. The magical countryside is disturbed by unusual events which alarm the children as well as the locals; under cover of night, burglars break into one house after another, stealing anything of value they can find. When the police turn a blind eye to denunciations by adults, the children decide to take matters into their own hands and unmask the burglars.
