CGiii Comment

The film is based on a true story.

In the early spring of 1988, hunters capture a wild boy among wolves deep in the Bosnian mountains. Without identity, the boy is randomly given a name Haris, and immediately sent to an orphanage in Belgrade. Even though medical predictions are grim, the care-taker Ilke anxiously tries to help the boy. Progress starts to show as Haris becomes inseparable with Zika, another boy from the orphanage. But Zika has to go with his father, and Haris is left alone once more. As he waits for Zika to fullfill his promise and come back for him, Haris utters his first words. Soon enough, he starts going to school and becomes a fairly socialised young man.

When Zika comes back, abandoned by his father once again, it is obvious that nothing is ever going to be the same. Unable to cope, and with no place to go, Zika kills himself.

It’s 1992 and the war in Bosnia is raging. A letter from the local authorities arrives, requesting Haris’ instant return. Ilke tries to save him. He hides him at his place. Eventually, police finds him and he is sent back to Bosnia.

As soon as he arrives, Haris ends up amid war. He is given a rifle and sent to the frontline. One night, after a fierce battle, he makes a decision on his own. He leaves the army and goes back to the mountains where he was found…
