When Mamo's mother dies, he is abandoned in the shanties of Addis Ababa.
Stolen by a child-trafficker and sold to a farmer, he is cruelly
treated. Escaping back to the city, he meets another, very different
runaway. Dani is rich, educated--and fleeing his tyrannical father.
Together they join a gang of homeless street boys who survive only by
mutual bonds of trust and total dependence on each other.
