After living in separate apartments for two years, Thomas decides to invite Lea and her son, Tristan, to a trip in the high mountains, determined to take their relationship to the next level. The days and nights in the small hut turn out to be more difficult then expected: While Tristan continues to share their bed, Thomas can’t sleep.
In his desperate attempt to win the boy’s fatherly respect, he takes Tristan and carries him up the mountain. In a beautiful panorama Thomas finally finds rest, while the child sleeps on his lap. But when Thomas awakes, the boy is gone, and fog is all around him. Thomas looked for him in vain, but falls off an overhang and injures himself severely. Tristan finds him and plays games with him as he pleases, throughout the bitter-cold night. Over the next 24 hours, the two of them for the first time see one another as who they are: A boy and a man.
