Scampolo, ein Kind der Straße

About This Movie

"Scampolo, ein Kind der Straße" is a 1932 romance and drama film directed by Lothar Stark. Set in Depression-era Germany, it follows the story of a street urchin navigating love and societal expectations.

Scampolo has had limited preservation and distribution, making its formats a bit scarce. I’ve seen some collectors hunt down the rare prints and early screenings, as the film holds a certain charm and historical significance—especially for those interested in pre-war German cinema. Its unique exploration of social themes through a child’s perspective sets it apart, prompting interest among niche collectors.
