Features:

• Only a few days separate Marianne from the long-awaited date. Since her childhood, something unexpected has happened in her life exactly every five years and seven months. Marianne's impatience grows – as does her fear. Especially since fate has led her far from home with her friend Peter. It was a crazy idea to want to find an old Nepalese soldier who had been missing for over twenty years... But despite the often sparse clues, it is clear that the young woman's fate repeatedly gives rise to new hopes. Step by step, the two companions approach the end of this incredible journey. And in the snows of the Himalayas, a completely new experience awaits them.
