Synopsis

When they discover that the child they are expecting is highly deformed and cannot live, the two parents agree to an abortion. Afterwards, the wife (Monique van de Ven) cannot stop talking about what to her is a tragedy, and is endlessly irritated at her husband's silence on the subject. She badgers him about it, and is beginning to have doubts about their marriage, which before had been a real love match. Eventually, the equally grieving man (Johan Leysen) has a breakdown, and his wife realizes that he has been suffering at lease as much as she has. This Dutch feature is based on the real-life experiences of its director, Rita Horst.
