Lyz is a high-school student that has managed, with great dedication and hard work, to get into an excellent ski club. Under the guidance of her new coach Fred, a former ski champion, she is steeply climbing to the top of youth skiing and it seems a new star is being born. Their trainings become increasingly more demanding and, day by day, their relationship also gets more intense, with everything acquiring a touch of obsession. Soon after the initial triumph, the young skier is faced with the questions about where the boundaries – not only of physical capability, but also of personal space and the permissible – lie.
