Episode 5

By Tarjei Vesaas. In the spring, Siss and her school-friends return to the now-melting Ice Palace.

When the waterfall freezes it creates the Ice Palace, a strange, magical ice-structure of chambers, trees and towers.

It already fascinates Siss, an eleven-year-old girl, and her school-friends. And it fascinates a new girl, Unn, even more.
