Sixteen-year-old Timofey, who foolishly ended up in a juvenile detention center, escapes during an off-site concert to find his gravely ill grandmother—the only family he has—who hasn't responded to his letters for two months. Following him is an eight-year-old street kid, Malek, who uncontrollably creates only difficulties along the way. The detention center's management conceals the escape and conducts their own pursuit of the runaways. The journey home in search of Timofey’s grandmother turns into a trial for both boys, helping them understand the true meaning of friendship, honesty, and justice.
