Plot: Two women, middle-aged Janis and adolescent Ana, are both in a hospital room where they are going to give birth. Both are single and became pregnant by accident. Janis doesn’t regret it and she is exultant. However, Ana, is scared, repentant and traumatised. Janis tries to encourage her while they move like sleepwalkers along the hospital corridors.
