Tarun grows up in a Roma tent, accepting their way of life, customs and values. His adoptive father, Papa Mulon, was a man of a noble heart and became like a father to him. However, he is not accepted by all members of the community; Henza, Mulon's wife, shows hostility towards him, considering him a burden.
