Scope and Contents

Opens with a shot of mountains covered in snow that pans left to right. Some trees in the foreground, the mountains are a little ways away. Eventually there is a man whose head you can see that looks to be lying in the snow. Shot goes to a man dancing in the snow mixed with clips of skiing and music begins to play. Many clips show him jumping as well as skiing down the hill. After a few minutes of these clips, it once again shows his head lying on the ground. It then goes back to skiing clips but these are more frantic as is the music. The final clip shows him falling hard after going off a jump. The film gives the impression that it depicts a dream, although it does not say so.
