Introduction

Céline is in her early 30s. Her wife is expecting after they conceived via IVF. But the path to legitimise herself as parent is complex, demanding that she reconnect with her mother and in the process understand the intricacies of motherhood. Anchored by subtle but powerful performances, and featuring inspired touches of comedy, this is a warm and profound drama.
