Icequake: Panic In the Alps is a 2014 disaster film that highlights the terrifying events occurring in the cold and snowy Alps. The movie starts with a tranquil atmosphere in the French Alps where geologist, Simon, is on an expedition with his assistant, who discovers a big increase in seismic activity on the mountains. Simon reaches out to his former colleague, Cécile, who now works for the French meteorological agency, to investigate the strange geological activity.

She joins Simon and discovers a highly intensified chilly wave approaching the area; she warns the village's authorities of an impending disaster, but no one believes her. As some tourists flock to the area to enjoy the snow, the situation gets progressively worse as a catastrophic and unanticipated earthquake strikes the area. The quake causes chaos and destruction, where buildings, roads, and people alike are in peril.

As their predictions become a reality, Simon and Cécile seek to save as many people as they can. Amid the calamity, some people, in the French Alps, struggle to survive while stuck in a cable car, others trapped in a restaurant, and a group of teenagers who get lost in the mountains.

Amid the chaos, Cécile tracks a highly unusual cold wave of never-before-seen intensity, and the race against time starts as the small village in the French Alps faces complete annihilation.
