The two were brought together by chance. Ten-year-old Saša ran away from home when he was suspected of setting fire to a barn with his friends. Seventeen-year-old Ruda escaped from a juvenile detention center because he attacked a guard. They met in Sasha's grandfather's garden shed, and their paths would soon have diverged if Sasha hadn't discovered that it was Ruda who had set fire to the barn and decided to force him to confess to the police so that he and his friends would not be punished. But Ruda has no interest in confessing. He wants to get away. Away from this country, far from his life in children's homes and juvenile detention centers. And to prevent Saša from ruining his plan, he takes him as a kind of "hostage"...
