France, 1963. Anne is a bright young student with a promising future ahead of her. But when she falls pregnant, she sees the opportunity to finish her studies and escape the constraints of her social background disappearing. With her final exams fast approaching and her belly growing, Anne resolves to act, even if she has to confront shame and pain, even if she must risk prison to do so.
A brilliant student must navigate the suffocating social pressures of 1963 France when an unplanned pregnancy threatens her academic future. This quiet, tense character study captures the frantic desperation of a young woman fighting to maintain her autonomy.
