A French-like burlesque about the adventures of a young boy in the first grade of elementary school. He gets acquainted with time, then, accompanied by his father, leaves home to spend his first day at school. On the way there, he meets Zizi, and they become friends. Mischief interests him more than learning to write, but he is not alone by this inclination. His imagination colours reality around him. He is cured from a major disease, makes adventures in social life, learns to know the adult world. He imagines his uncle, whom he does not love and whom he continuously escapes, to be set in prison. A baby is born in the family, and it is much bigger happiness than his excellent marks, only Zizi needs to be comforted because she failed in a subject. But there is no problem because he makes a promise to marry her. When he grows up.
