author:Bright Net

In "9 Meters", the mother is seriously ill in bed and has been in a coma for a long time. His 16-year-old son, Daniel, is a long jumper who practices long jump every day in hopes of waking up his mother.

The world record for the long jump is 8.95 meters, while the Daniel's building and the sister building opposite are exactly 9 meters apart. This 9 meters is Daniel's goal, he is not jumping 9 meters on the ground, but 9 meters on the roof of the two buildings.

The movie chooses an open-ended ending. The final shot freezes in daniel jumping to the middle of the two buildings, and we don't know whether Daniel can jump or not. The suspense of this short film is quite well created, although it is a heart-warming work, but Daniel's persistent every move always touches the hearts of the audience.
