In Pama, lioness Sirga and boy Oule, born the same day, are raised as siblings. Sirga teaches Oule to speak to trees, beasts, bees and wind. When northern horsemen seize the village’s children, Oule and Lena are sold to a noble who, fearing Oule’s gifts, exiles him. Drawing on lion strength, Oule reunites with Sirga and, with Lena, rebuilds Pama.
