Mato is a 10 year old Buno tribal boy who is the despair of his mother because he spends all his time daydreaming instead of doing the useful things Buno boys are meant to do. He is completely devoted to his pet baby goat Arjun. When a Kapalik demands that Arjun be sacrificed to the Goddess Kali Mato runs away with him in a desperate bid to reach the sanctuary of the Armenian Church.
