Johanna, a beautiful brunette, comes back to her father's house after accomplishing a training course in a car factory in Turin. At home, she reads a note her father had ensconced in the welcome bouquet of flowers: «You're back at last.» Then, she meets her best friend, Jasmin, and they go together to see their group of friends # all have grown up together by the lake. It comes up they have all received a message similar to her own. Next evening, these young persons are having a good time, dancing, flirting, drinking a lot, as a retarded person watches them, and evokes a memory of a similar evening years ago... Then, people start dying around, and in the peaceful lake that hides mysteries they share.

The diagnosis is a shock. Katharina refuses to accept that her 17-year-old son Basti will be in a wheelchair after a traffic accident. She tirelessly takes him from one doctor to the next, not realizing how Basti feels increasingly suffocated by her care. This changes when Katharina finally meets Janik, a man who understands Basti. In "Sprung ins Leben", Simone Thomalla as a mother has to learn to let go of her son and accept that he wants to live his own life.
