Dans une classe de neige, Nicolas, un enfant grave, fragile et perturbé, est assailli de souvenirs douloureux et de fantasmes parfois terrifiants. Il entraîne peu à peu son ami Hodkann dans sa dérive mentale en lui racontant de terribles histoires. Malade, il est choyé par le moniteur Patrick et Mlle Grimm, la maîtresse de sa classe. Au terme de son aventure, la réalité se révèlera plus éprouvante que ses fantasmes les plus cruels.
The story begins with Nicolas at ten years old and dreading the school ski trip. Nicolas was worried that he wouldn't fit in with the other boys. His overprotective father decides to take Nicolas by himself instead of going with the group. En route, Nicolas and his father pass the aftermath of an apparently fatal car accident. Seeing police ahead while the traffic had stopped, Nicolas' father becomes nervous and conceals all loose items within the car in the trunk – and we see that Nicolas' travel bag is next to several matching briefcases. Nicolas subsequently forgets his bag in his father's car, increasing his awkwardness.
