The four movie stories create a mosaic of destinies of several married and cohabitating couples who, at certain turning points in their lives, deal with the questions of wanted, unwanted, longed-for and unsuccessful parenthood. The screenwriter and director Alice Nellis aims to show, by telling concurrent stories, that the problem of modern parenthood is broader and deeper than any particular situation of any of the characters. This Czech number one director comes again with a story that may touch the viewers regardless of their age or standing. Each of the stories of the long for a child, the fatal decision whether to have a child or not, or the effort to cope with the life traps can be a story of yours. (official distributor synopsis)
