Plot Summary

A coming of age story of a prematurely orphaned Vuk, the little fox, whose family was wiped out by man. The only reason Vuk didn't die was because he wandered away from home. He has to learn early about the dangers that surround him, though his uncle Karak takes him under his wings and teaches him many things. Growing up, Vuk becomes the famous hunter of the forest and will not rest until he has taught a lesson to the man who wiped out his family. The film is a feature-length movie version of the Hungarian television series of the same title.
