Two lifelong friends, Carolyn and Nadine, face very different circumstances. Carolyn, childless after many miscarriages, wants nothing more than to be a mom; Nadine is raising four young kids mostly on her own. 

When Nadine tells Carolyn she’s pregnant but can’t have a fifth child, Carolyn offers to adopt the baby. Nadine’s rejection of her offer sets Carolyn down a desperate path that leads to alarming consequences.  

The film explores bodily autonomy and pregnancy loss through the lenses of motherhood, friendship, obsession, and desire.
