THE LEAP
Synopsis: Tobias Jacobsen is 42. When the doctors tell him he is
fatally ill, the earth opens beneath him and he finds girlfriend got him to jump
off the balcony of her father¡¯s house with a sun umbrella for a parachute. Two
stories separated by 29 years are told in parallel, but gradually intertwine
into one drama. Both stories have moments of joy and tragedy, as fates
wondrously separate and are brought back together again. It is a story about
making a leap of faith, trusting in yourself and realizing that, ultimately,
life is no good without humour, even of the darker variety.
