Fiona is a fast-food manager outside a big city. She lives a small house together with her husband, Julien, and their two children. To cut it short everything is OK for her. Until the day when...
... She finds herself locked a whole night inside the fast-food's freezer. This shock would bring to Fiona a real addiction for cold, ice and snow. She dreams of a huge and magnificent iceberg. One morning she leaves her husband, children and work. She wishes to see an iceberg, with her own eyes.
