12-year-old Teo moves to a foreign city with his father, Stefan, who works as a construction worker. They live alone, trying to cope with the loneliness and anger accompanying the death of Teo’s mother. One day the boy meets Ro, a magical creature resembling a winged flying dinosaur. Gradually, Ro becomes Teo’s secret friend, accompanying him through his daily struggles and difficulties at his new school and in the city. Ro’s friendship will help the stray boy get back on his feet, but Teo will have to help Ro get home, and time is running out!
