Pals amid the ruins. These two friends live at Fresnes, one of the ruined towns of France. Every house of the town is in ruins, but the widowed mother of the little boy has made a shelter in the ruins of their former home and the boy and dog cuddle up close to each other on cold nights to keep themselves warm.
