About

Two unmarried women who have become pregnant by accident and are about to give birth meet in a hospital room: Janis, in her late-thirties, unrepentant and happy; Ana, a teenager, remorseful and frightened.
Rather than focusing on the mechanics of childbirth, this intimate study examines how two vastly different women navigate the sudden, heavy reality of motherhood. The quiet friction between an unrepentant veteran and a terrified teenager turns a standard hospital setting into a profound landscape of generational identity.
