Synopsis

After twenty years, Nina's marriage to Wojtek is going nowhere, partly because of their failed attempts to have children. When they meet a young woman, Magda, they decide to propose that she become a surrogate mother for their child. The energetic, apparently carefree Magda breaks open Nina's world. But things get more complicated when Nina suddenly feels attracted to Magda.
