"Everyone waits for different things in life. Waiting for the day to go on a trip, putting money into savings every month; waiting for the day a loved one returns after graduation; being starving and waiting for your instant noodles to cook after pouring in hot water... It's difficult, yet exciting, and also requires patience... So then, what is it like... to wait for life itself?"
The respected gynecologist Prof. Hausen is averse to performing abortions. In contrast, his up-and-coming colleague Dr. Schäfer sees abortion as a means of helping women in need and openly advocates an amendment of the law. The professor’s convictions are shaken when misfortune befalls his own family. Louise Fleck presents her drama about the untimeliness of restrictive abortion legislation against the backdrop of modern urban reality. Seriousness, however, is preserved, because topics such as unwanted pregnancy, sexual violence, and the consequences of improperly performed abortions are not only addressed through minor characters, but also placed at the center of the cinematic narrative.
