The story of a ten year old boy (Dimitrije Vojnov) who, as most of the children in Yugoslavia of the 1950s can hardly imagine his life without the great national leader - marshal Tito (Vojislav 'Voja' Brajovic). After winning the contest for the best composition, he is rewarded with the participation in "Tito's native land" march. This march will be a difficult temptation for him. Unaccustomed to nature, long walks, independent living and harassed by the teacher, Stalinist, he fails, gets lost in the mountains and his life changes.
