More than anything in the world, the ailing child of an impecunious, single mother-of-one wants to discover what a ripe, round, juicy orange tastes like. Instead, unable to grant the wish, the desperate mother, who struggles to eke out an existence by making toys, sheds a warm, bitter tear. Then, as one thing leads to another, it falls to a loveable, chivalrous stuffed toy dog to fulfil the child's dream, and as it ends up in the crowded streets of the bustling big city, it embarks on a noble mission to find the precious fruit. However, it is a jungle out there. Can the plush toy dog get the orange and make it home in one piece?
