A few days after the end of World War II, 11-year-old orphan Julius is on the run from the destroyed city of Berlin. Julius and formerly imprisoned communist Kaiser both stumble on a horse in a forest and report it to the Soviet commander in a nearby town. They are given jobs at a traveling circus which has set up camp on the outskirts, and Kaiser is even appointed ringmaster. Since it is very expensive to feed the circus main attraction, a lion, Kaiser thinks of using the horse as food. Julius, however, is horrified by this idea and runs away with the horse.
