Overview

Thirty-seven-year-old Zane and Kaspars seem to have it all – love, careers, a home, and shared hobbies. Still, for a decade, they have been unable to have a child. After trying fertility clinics, diets, churches, and healers, Kaspars is slowly coming to terms with the idea that life can be fulfilling even without children. Meanwhile, Zane cannot accept the thought of not becoming a mother and is ready to go to any lengths to make it happen.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A tender but increasingly fraught portrait of a long-term couple grappling with infertility as their visions for the future diverge. The film quietly excavates how desire, acceptance, and partnership strain under the weight of a shared dream that may never materialize.
