action
The teenage girl Lia mocks the boy Gogi from the neighborhood, who is about the same age, as a hedgehog because of his bristly hair . The angry boy pursues her in vain in the stairwell until she escapes into her apartment. When she fails next time, the boy doesn't know how to react and just stands in front of her, embarrassed. The game continues until tears of desperation flow into the boy. One day a truck is loaded with furniture and drives away with the boy on the loading area. The girl runs after him as long as she can and cheekily calls her hedgehog after him. When she arrives back home, she is in tears.
