A film about the need for parental love, whose lack results in aggression towards the world, especially in the frail and sensitive psyche of a child.
Crow is a nine-year-old girl raised by a single, overworked mother. They lead a very modest life, over which the girl is sometimes harassed at school. When she gets home, it is usually empty. Her mother works until late and the girl goes to sleep before she gets home. One morning, Crow wakes up beside her sleeping mother and decides to leave home. Outside, she walks up to the window through which the day before she saw a small child who was being looked after with affection by its parents. She waits for the moment when the baby is alone and kidnaps it. They roam the streets together. The girl takes the baby to her home, tries to feed it soup, changes its clothes. They spend the evening on an old boat where Crow puts the child to sleep by singing it lullabies. She returns the sleeping baby to its parents and goes back home. Upon seeing her mother, the girl asks her for a hug.
