Amelie is 13, a real city brat and possibly the most stubborn girl in all of Berlin. Amelie doesn't let anyone tell her what to do, especially not her parents, who take her to a special clinic in South Tyrol after a life-threatening asthma attack. Exactly what Amelie does not want. Instead of letting herself be helped, she runs away. She flees to a place where no one is likely to suspect her: up the mountain. In the middle of the Alps she meets a mysterious 15-year-old with the strange name Bart. When the uninvited companion saves her life, Amelie discovers that Bart is much more interesting than she initially thought. Together, the two embark on an adventurous journey of hopeful wonder and genuine friendship.
