SYNOPSIS

Matic is a boy with a mother, who really does love him, but who has plenty of problems of her own at home and at work. And Matic's father is on a work tour in Lybia. So it is only natural that his best friend is a boy of his own age called Rok. The turning point in Matic's life comes when he is discovered by a film team and given the leading part in a film. His partner is a dog - a big, black Newfoundland. And of course there is also Milena, a little girl of his own age. Matic becomes so attached to the dog that the film team gifts him the dog after the end of shooting. And that is where the problems starts: where to put a dog in a concrete estate?
