Lena doesn’t have much time left, as the boxes for their relocation to Bangkok are already packed when she discovers she’s pregnant – a medical impossibility, according to her doctors.

But how profound will the consequences of this decision be for her?

When Felix’s friend Max drops by, he shares news that makes the situation even more difficult for Felix.
