Snow Treasure (film)

Snow Treasure is a 1968 American adventure film directed by Irving Jacoby and starring James Franciscus, Ilona Rodgers and Tor Stokke.

[1] It is based on the 1942 novel Snow Treasure by Marie McSwigan, set during the German occupation of Norway during World War II.

Peter Lundstrom wants to be involved in helping his father, Lars, and uncle, Victor, against the Nazis who have invaded their country, Norway.

Peter then discovers he cannot do this alone as it will take too long, and the snow is melting, which means he doesn't have much time left to ski with the gold.

Peter recruits a number of village children to help him, and each day they ski as many bars of gold as they can down to a clearing, where they build a pile of ingots and a snowman surrounding them.
