Synopse
A young midwife enmeshes herself in a web of lies. A psychological drama like a jigsaw puzzle, disturbing and moving in equal measure. Lydia loves her job as midwife and performs it with great conscientiousness. But then a break-up and the news that her best friend Salomé is pregnant throw her completely off track. On top of that, she has a one-night stand with Milo, who thereafter wants no contact with her. After Salomé gives birth, Milo and Lydia meet by chance in the hospital lift. This unexpected encounter sets off a spiral that she can no longer control.
