Film Description:
Ten-year-old Sasha ran away from home after being suspected of setting a barn on fire with his friends. Seventeen-year-old Ruda escaped from a children’s home after attacking a nurse. They meet in Sasha’s grandfather’s garden house, and their paths would soon diverge—unless Sasha discovers that it was Ruda who actually set the barn on fire, and decides to force him to confess to the police so that he and his friends won’t be punished.
However, Ruda has no intention of confessing. He wants to leave—leave this country and escape his life in children’s homes. And to make sure Sasha doesn’t ruin his plan, he takes him with him… as something like a hostage.
