Er kann wie eine Katze über die Dächer klettern und tarnt sich als indischer Junge, um seine englische Herkunft zu verbergen. Denn Kim geht seine Freiheit über alles. Doch der Abwehrdienst der britischen Kolonialmacht nutzt Kims Fähigkeiten zu Spionagezwecken.
Kim, a young boy living on his own on the streets of India, is actually the son of a British officer. He meets a lama, a holy man, and devotes himself to his tending. But when British administrators discover his birthright, he is placed in a British school. His nature, however, is opposed to the regimentation expected for the son of a British soldier, and he rebels. His familiarity with Indian life and his ability to pass as an Indian child allows him to function as a spy for the British as they attempt to thwart revolution and invasion of India. Rejoining his holy man, Kim (with the help of daring adventurer Mahbub Ali) takes on a dangerous mission.
