Sünopsis

Mari's mother is dead and her father is a drunkard. Life in an orphanage seems impossible but she has nowhere to go. She must get used to live without a home full of warmth and love, together with rough fellow orphans. Fortunately, there is Tauri who behaves well but for some reason other children don't favor him. Robi is a guy who likes to break the rules, thus being popular among the kids; Mari thinks that Robi should be hated instead. Mari finds it almost intolerable to learn the lesson how to see other people around her and how to learn to know them - nevertheless, her fate will depend on this.
