One day, when 10-year-old Gidi escapes from the bully tormenting him, he finds himself in Adlery's scary junkyard. Unexpectedly, it is there that Gidi feels comfortable talking about his fear of Danny the Bully, his secret love for the cool Netta, and his worry about the big change coming when his mother gives birth to her little sister.
Gidi doesn't feel ready to be a big brother because he desperately needs a big brother himself who will protect and help him. But Gidi's life is about to change sooner than expected when a huge robot suddenly emerges from the pile of scrap. Will Gidi succeed in turning the robot into the big brother he dreamed of? Will he manage to overcome the harassment of Danny the Bully? And will he have the courage to finally propose friendship to Netta?
A surprising and captivating show based on the beloved book by comic artist Yonatan Shem-Or.
