This animated film is an anti-Communist allegory that tells the story of a dangerous bear — meant to represent Russia — that escapes from his keeper and encounters a group of children, several of whom he eventually eats. The remaining children (i.e., Southeast Asian countries) are able to join together and turn the bear away.
