This is the story of a mother who is diagnosed with schizophrenia shortly before the birth of her child. It is also the story of a child taken in by a foster family, but not knowing for how long. Thirty years later the child, now an adult, takes responsibility for the woman that calls herself her mother. How is it possible to be connected to a person that you’ve never spent more than two hours with at a time, and when you don’t even have a single photo of the two of you together? (Production note)
