ESCLUSIVA: Il trailer di The Badgers, selezionato in Locarno Kids
- Il film di Paul Magnus Lundø segue l'undicenne Berny che si trasferisce dalla madre adottiva e sogna di diventare uno scout famoso come suo padre

Questo articolo è disponibile in inglese.
Orphaned 11-year-old Berny, who moves in with his foster mother, Gerdy, dreams of becoming a legacy scout like his father. Gerdy forbids it, but he joins the Badgers, nonetheless, led by traditionalist Gunnar. When Gerdy steps in as co-leader, she cancels the competition which Berny has signed up for. But Gunnar secures one final contest. Berny cheats using his father’s old uniform, sparking tensions, and as Gerdy and Gunnar clash over their conflicting visions of scouting, Berny must choose between winning and doing what’s right. In the end, he confesses and gives up the trophy to save the troop.
This is the premise of Paul Magnus Lundø’s third feature, The Badgers [+leggi anche:
