Synopsis
La Fonte des neiges is about a few days of a holiday when Leo, a twelve-year-old child is forced to follow his mother to a nudist camp. At first deeply shy, he responds by wearing extra clothes. After meeting Antoinette, a playful girl, Leo slowly becomes more relaxed and is revealed as a responsible and gentle person. The discovery of his body and the first feelings of love take on the appearance of a fairy tale with a hallucinogenic quality.
