Mijo is hiding in the woods as a soldier at the end of the second World War. Through his life, we explore the circumstances that lead to the expansion of extremism. By witnessing his father's cruel act driven by poverty and after carrying out the municipal authorities’ undue order to get rid of the family dog, Mijo became easy prey for right-wing ideology which offered him false hope for a better life and a false culprit for all the things he has suffered.
