A short feature film shot in black-and-white, in documentary fashion. It depicts three days in the life of thirteen-year-old Bartek, living in Łódź, Poland, who desperately tries to hide the fact that his father beats him. Lonely, and with no support from his intimidated household drudge of a mother, the boy finds his only friend in an old stray dog from the kennels. He is a gifted soccer player and during preparations for a school football cup, Bartek’s secret is revealed. His coach, previously strict and hostile, now decides to intercede for him. Despite the good intentions of the coach, Bartek’s grim experiences have made him completely untrusting.
