The author gives a short and elementary introduction to differential equations in the complex domain and to the Painlevé analysis. The main emphasis is given to the Painlevé property for an ordinary differential equation and its interrelations with soliton-like solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries equation and other nonlinear equations of mathematical physics. The article is based on a lecture given by the author for secondary school teachers in the framework of the ``International Soros Science Educational Program and is aimed at presenting contemporary developments in mathematics on an elementary level understandable for secondary school teachers and pupils.
