Nine-year-old Franz has climbed onto the diving-board to prove to himself that he is not a coward. For the first time in his life he's going to jump from a five-meterboard. In mid-air, though, his attitude changes. He goes back. Or rather, he tries to go back. Because his friend Partrick is blocking his way, he has to jump. Hand in hand with Patrick – eyes closed – he dares to take the leap. With the help of the most modern computer technology we experience Franz' fears and witness the fate of a human being.
