Four-year-old Romochka is left alone in a dark, empty Moscow apartment. After a few days, hunger drives him outside, where he sees a large, yellow dog loping past and follows her to her lair on the outskirts of the city. During the seasons that follow, Romochka changes from a boy into something far wilder.
Romochka har taget alt det tøj på, han kunne finde i den tomme lejlighed, som han i så mange dage har overlevet helt alene i. En dag kom hans mor ikke hjem mere, og siden har 'Onkel' fjernet alle møblerne, men glemt ham. Nu har sulten drevet den lille dreng med den røde spand ud i byens iskolde gader.Kold og bange følger han efter det første væsen, der viser ham venlig interesse – en stor, gul hunhund. I hælene på denne hund, gennem helt almindelige gader, forbi almindelige liv, krydser en ensom dreng en grænse, der normalt ikke kan krydses – og dårligt nok kan tænkes.
