Strašni kauboj

Strašni kauboj

Ivan Kušan

The story takes place in a small Dalmatian town during the summer holidays. The main character, Petar, along with his friends Koko, Zec and Mirko, get into a series of comical and tense adventures.

This time they are inspired by cowboy movies and westerns they watch at the cinema. Peter, obsessed with the idea of ​​becoming a "terrible cowboy", takes on the role of sheriff and sets off on a "hunt" for an imaginary bandit - the mysterious Red Indian (who later turns out to be an ordinary tourist in costume). The children organize a cowboy chase through the village: they ride donkeys instead of horses, use wooden guns and straw hats, and "attack" the locals, thinking they are part of a gang. In the midst of the chaos, a misunderstanding occurs - Peter accidentally "captures" a real thief who stole money from the village cooperative. The adventure culminates in a great chase and rescue of the village, where the children, although clumsy, unintentionally solve a real crime.
