'A deeply unsettling meditation on sexuality and transgression.'

The Guardian

Provocative and moving drama about an obstetrician who secretly performs abortions in the Georgian countryside.

Nina works in the only small hospital of a provincial town as an OB-GYN. Single and in abstinence from personal relationships, she is unconditionally devoted to her Hippocratic oath.

When a newborn dies within seconds of being delivered under her supervision, she is accused of wrongdoings. Under investigation, every detail of Nina’s personal and professional life is being scrutinized. Despite the risks, Nina remains devoted to her duty as a doctor, committed to doing what nobody else will.
