About the film
Since the birth of her child, Mara has felt lonely and cut off from her creativity. Now that her son is older, she and her friend and director Klara are finally planning a dance performance. Then Mara becomes pregnant again, and they are back to square one. The two try to adapt the performance to the new circumstances, but motherhood leaves Mara with no energy, inspiration or time for creative expression. A study of the search for creative freedom and the desire to stay true to yourself—and a film about a wonderful friendship between two women that fuels their creativity.
