La città dei ragazzi (1938)
Padre Flanagan, appena abbracciata la veste sacerdotale, decide di consacrare il proprio apostolato costruendo un centro per ospitare i ragazzi orfani e abbandonati. Ben presto però si accorgerà che l'affluenza dei giovani sarà incontenibile, il che porterà alla creazione di una vera e propria "Città dei Ragazzi". Ma anche quando tutto sembra scorrere a meraviglia, ecco che qualcuno è sempre pronto a mettere il bastone fra le ruote, e padre Flanagan si vedrà costretto ad affrontare un giovane teppista che tenta di ostacolarlo.
