Plot
16-year old Daniel is an athlete with a talent for long jumping. He has broken his own records many times. Unfortunately, his mother is in a coma and on the verge of dying. Daniel has the impression that as long as he breaks his own records, she stays alive. When he fails to do so, her condition coincidentally gets worse. Daniel blames himself and starts to jump between rooftops to get the extra kick needed to push himself to new limits and hopefully keep the doctors from shutting off her life support.
