A luxury ski resort in Switzerland. 12-year-old Simon lives in the industrial valley below, with his jobless sister. Every day, he takes the ski-lift to the opulent ski world above, stealing equipment from the rich tourists. He loses his boundaries. Confronted with a truth he and his sister had both been escaping, he seeks refuge up above.
