While traveling between coasts on his company jet to the bedside of his dying mother, Raf lays down for a much-needed rest. His dream take him back to Zermatt, Switzerland, to 1975, one of the happiest yet one of the most tragic times of his life. He revisits a part of his life when, after more than a year of a hard, grueling, non-stop, work schedule, he had anticipated a worry-free two-weeks of relaxation and non-stop skiing. But on a train taking him up to Zermatt Village, he chance encounters a mysterious, precocious young girl whose ways and ideas would have a life-altering effect on him. Through her eyes and her perceptions of everything around her, she causes him to become more self-aware of the place he is at in his own life. Nonetheless, he feels the need to ignore and dismiss her and her family. But because Zermatt is a small village and they coincidentally stay at the same hotel he does, he finds that hard to do. But fate intervenes and solves that problem for him.
