Two women. One journey to their selves. A child lost and one breath that unites both women. One is the troubled and loving mother searching for her child. The other is an expectant mother running away from accountability. Tessa, 37, seems to have a perfect life. She and her husband Jan and their 18-month-old daughter Lotte live in a penthouse apartment in Frankfurt. Her relationship with Jan, however, is strained. Suppressed conflicts have been smoldering for some time, especially since Tessa went back to work and a nanny, Elena, has been looking after Lotte. Elena, 27, is from Athens. She reacts to the crisis in her country with courage and confidence and goes to Germany to make money, true to her belief that everything will turn out for the best. But life turns out to be more complicated when she unexpectedly becomes pregnant and is suddenly responsible for more than just herself. |
