Troels is in 7th grade. Around him, sexuality sprouts. Boys are becoming men, but Troels and his only friend, Nicky, are not a part of it. However, the two outsiders will soon discover that the sense of community can be found in the small, and when they least expect it.

Uptight New York City executive, Michael Cromwell, pursues his soon-to-be ex-wife to South America and returns home with the son he never knew he had—a boy raised in a tribal village in Brazil. Armed with only his blowgun, the 13-year-old Mimi-Siku discovers that the world outside his jungle home is indeed a strange place.
