An old woman wishes on a falling star, setting off an extraordinary sequence of events: a Vietnam Veteran decides to make one final journey before he dies and finds something he didnât know he was searching for, a single mother struggles to rescue her relationship with her delinquent teenage son, an emotionally crippled scientist resorts to crime to get her hands on a rare meteor and the leader of a snow-worshiping cult chooses a new object of devotion. All of them gather in the alpine town of Zermatt, Switzerland, where their wishes and memories weave a story of what it means to forget, to remember and to be remembered.
