If you loved Der kleine Vampir, try Herr der Diebe
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Richard Claus, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Der kleine Vampir, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Herr der Diebe is
This children’s adventure trades plucky orphans for Venetian canals and a thief with a flair for the dramatic. Two brothers hide in plain sight among waterways and old theaters, supported by a gang of young crooks and their strangely charming ringleader. When a bumbling detective starts poking around and a time-spinning treasure unexpectedly surfaces, suddenly their gimmicks have real consequences.
