'Some things are just sitting there, minding their own business, waiting to be discovered.
Like America.
And other things are probably better off left alone' Nine-year-old Bruno has a lot of things on his mind.
Who is the 'Fury'?
Why did he make them leave their nice home in Berlin to go to 'Out-With' ?
And who are all the sad people in striped pyjamas on the other side of the fence?
The grown-ups won't explain so Bruno decides there is only one thing for it - he will have to explore this place alone.
What he discovers is a new friend.
A boy with the very same birthday.
A boy in striped pyjamas.
But why can't they ever play together?
