Après la mort de l'ermite aîné, Boychuck, peintre à ses heures, les deux hommes font une découverte étonnante : des centaines de peintures faisant écho à sa tragique expérience liée à des incendies de forêt qui menacent la région. Aux funérailles de leur compagnon, les deux hommes font la rencontre de Gertrude (Andrée Lachapelle), qui fut internée à l'âge de 16 ans pour des motifs religieux. Gertrude veut fuir la clinique médicale et aboutit chez Charlie et Tom qui se rebutent au début ; nouvelle vie, nouvelle identité, Gertrude devient Marie-Desneige. S'en suit un idylle amoureuse touchante et lumineuse.
