Maja is staying in a mountain hotel in the Bavarian Alps for the purpose of mental recovery. Her busy husband visits her there only on weekends. In the meantime, Maja meets a young man named Florian Faber, a doctor who is often drawn to the world of summits. Both begin to feel something for each other, but Florian’s urge to climb dangerous mountain peaks is so strong that he underestimates the dangers of climbing.
