Synopsis

What does it mean for a woman to take up the role of a mother? Four Latvian women offer a unique insider point of view of their pregnancy. An ambitious dancer has to put her career on hold while being pregnant. A housewife is expecting her second child and fears postpartum depression recurring. An urban party girl becomes pregnant, decides to get married and move to the countryside to build a new home from scratch. A young entrepreneur and ex-punk welcomes her first child yet is haunted by the traumatic events from her past.
