Synopsis

The filmmaker's point of view on what midwives experience today (she was herself a midwife for 5 years). An attempt to make the audience feel what they, the women, and even what the fœtuses, feel. A mixture, at times a fight, between the women’s wish - their right - to give birth in “this secret ceremony” where the sacred is not out of place, and the context of the highly technological environment which “accompanies” delivery, maternity and giving birth today.
