A character-driven drama examining the collision between teenage motherhood and the desire for normalcy, grounded in intimate family dynamics and the weight of premature adult responsibility.

Natalia is a 17-year-old mom living with her mother and son, Antos. She wanted to have a baby because it was a “cool” thing to do, and because she feels she has someone to love; someone who can love her in return. Everything changes when Natalia’s mother decides to move out, giving Natalia a chance to lead a “normal life.”
