Berlín, 1942. Bruno, un niño de nueve años, se ve obligado a mudarse con su familia a una zona rural desolada cuando su padre, un miembro de la élite militar, recibe un nuevo destino. Aburrido y solo, Bruno explora los alrededores y se obsesiona con una misteriosa cerca que rodea un campo cercano. Un día, conoce a Schmuel, un niño que vive al otro lado de la cerca y que lleva un pijama de rayas. A través de su amistad prohibida, Bruno comienza a comprender la terrible realidad que se esconde tras la cerca, aunque es demasiado tarde para escapar de los horrores que allí se viven. Esta conmovedora historia explora la inocencia infantil en tiempos de guerra y la devastadora pérdida de la inocencia ante la crueldad del mundo.
