Filmed in Tirana, Debatik was the second feature film produced by Kinostudio. It was released in Albania and China.
Three years after the Italian invasion of Albania, children create their anti-fascist organization, called Debatik (, in English United Boys Members of Communist Ideas).
Coli, an orphaned poor boy, is proud to be accepted in the organization and helps Debatik steal weapons from Italian soldiers. However, Debatik's headquarters is discovered by Italian engineers and find documents that allow them to arrest several members, including Coli. He manages to inform his communist teacher that he is trapped by the fascist prosecutors, but is killed while doing so. Uncle Demir finds the boy and transports his dead body in his carriage.
In 1958, Tana became the first feature film produced entirely by Albania. The second feature film entirely produced by Kinostudio, Debatik was directed by Hysen Hakani and Gëzim Erebara. Sulejman Vaqari, Niko Koleka, Hakani, and Erebara wrote the script. Tish Daija composed the music for the film. Shooting was done in Tirana.
The name of the film comes from the acronym of the Pioneers of Enver, Djemtë E Bashkuar Anëtarë Të Ideve Komuniste, rather than the Albanian word.
Debatik premiered on 27 December 1961, and was released in China under the name Tamen ye zai zhandou. It was shown at the Giffoni Film Festival in 1985, under the title La discussione.
