Hatred and bullying are some of the most vile aspects of human nature. Dogfights clearly reveal these manifestations. The worst representatives of the human race are trying to drag Abrek the wolf into this bloody madness. However, there is no place for incomprehensible human malice in him, he acts according to his natural laws, always remaining true to himself, his nature. It is he who becomes the mute teacher for the Russian sapper Volodya and the Chechen boy Khalid. It is the wild predator that helps them sort themselves out, understand what is important and what is not, understand what is worth fighting for to the end, and where to be merciful.
