What Anton (9) loves best is playing in his children’s playhouse, but he is banned to do so, due to an involuntary mischief. The boy tells his friend Nia that he wants to become an adult and behave responsibly. His radio message is intercepted by Zlotar, who had no childhood. He makes a deal with Anton: for one day the boy will be like an adult, and Zlotar will have his childhood.
