Summer in Castle Rock. For several days, four boys have been listening to the radio reports in their tree house about a boy who was run over by a train and whose body is still lying on the railway tracks. To make an impression on their elders, they decide to go on a search - and experience the adventure of friendship in the process ... Based on a short story by Stephen King, this bittersweet coming-of-age story celebrates the 1950s, but with the youngsters of the time in front of the camera. STAND BY ME thus tells of farewells and new beginnings in two senses, and it does so with a great deal of empathy, gentle humour, authentic characters and wonderfully sun-drenched images. A jewel!
