In the Bosnian mountains in the spring of 1988 a child is found who had been nurtured by wolves. He is given the name Haris and sent to Serbia, to the Belgrade orphanage, where Ilke sees to his care. Here he becomes inseparable friends with Zika and, in time, learns to speak his first words. But in 1992, in the midst of the war, the local authorities force him to return to Bosnia where he is given a rifle and sent to the front. And one night, for the first time in his life, the boy makes a decision all his own.
