Synopsis

Toymaker  Kasimir  had hardly finished carving the puppet Turli before he comes alive and starts causing unintentional mischief by  skipping school and creating chaos at the puppet theater. Turli is finally caught by  the  evil  Muriel,  who turns lazy children into donkeys and makes them work for him. The fairy Euphrosina helps Turli escape so he can first rescue Kasimir, who was swallowed by  a  fish  while  looking  for him,  and  then  save  the  other  children from Muriel's clutches. As a reward, Turli becomes a real boy.
