Overview
Two young women, Lidija and Esmeralda, have become mothers at a tender age. At the moment, they’re at a point where neither their families nor the fathers of their children can help them. They live in a safe house that proves to be a place where they can receive the love, goodwill and peace they could not find before. This visceral film contrasts youthful naivety with hard-to-face facts in a story of longing, hope for love and difficult choices.
