A tender yet morally fraught portrait of a mother and daughter navigating illegal abortion in a religiously conservative society, deepening their bond through shared transgression and mutual protection.

On the outskirts of the capital of Chad, determined single mother Amina works tirelessly to provide for herself and her 15-year old daughter Maria. When Amina discovers Maria is pregnant and does not want a child, the two women begin to seek out an abortion, condemned by both religion and law. In the process, mother and daughter forge a connection stronger than any they’ve ever known.
