Storyline:
Adrian Melik grows up as a scholarship holder in a private boarding school. On his thirteenth birthday he makes a suicide attempt: he wants to plunge from the roof of the boarding school. One of the firefighters, an American named Dave, takes care of the boy and a friendship develops over time. Adrian gets to know security, warmth, understanding and trust in Dave. At the boarding school, Adrian’s friendship with Dave is increasingly being viewed with suspicion and they eventually prohibit the boy from any further contact with the American. Adrian sees only one way to send a “sign” to his friend.
