A detective returns to his home town in the Swiss mountains to remember her brother who died in an accident many years ago along with several other children. After a murder in town, she stays and starts to investigate.

In a hidden corner of the Swiss Alps, a man and his son, Benny, enjoy a vacation away from the distractions of modern life. After several days of connecting with nature and learning the trade of self-sufficiency, Benny understands that the holidays are extended for no reason and that his father has no intention of returning him to his mother, much less to civilization.
