Micheline, who is pregnant, lives in a home for women from which she tries to observe the world with calm and serenity. Among other women of the home who are also pregnant the frequently asked question is whether they will keep their baby or not. In her first film, director Marie Vermillard succeeds in dealing with a melodramatic subject with a balanced, almost impressionistic point of view. The actors (professional as well-as non-professional) are remarkable, particularly Alexia Monduit who plays Micheline.
