Struggling with her unfulfilled desire to have a child, a young woman finds herself in a liminal world, trying to find a way to break free from convention and norm.
Rebekka is in her mid-thirties, has a degree but works as a sales assistant in a furniture shop. She is in a relationship, longs for a child who does not come, and wonders why this desire is so strong and why it cannot simply disappear. When Rebekka’s best friend Jenny becomes pregnant before her, a noose tightens around Rebekka’s heart. And she is overcome by the feeling that everything in her life is now falling into a fateful order. She embarks on an odyssey through windowless fertility clinics, libraries, the places of her childhood, and into a parallel realm of vivid fantasies. These shifting layers of reality unlock buried desires, threatening to tear her meticulously constructed life apart.
