- Jakob, skilled mountain guide, is the only one who dares climbing a mountain at night to dynamite and redirect the snow, thus preventing an avalanche over the new luxurious hotel; yet he must keep it a secret. His strong character and independent ways make him unpopular among his neighbor villagers, except for Monika. Even more when lands and a missing will are at stake. That he gives money to Monika does not help at all. The only way out is to be the first one to climb Monte Verità, as the one who succeeds will win the land.
