Summary

A disturbing drama about a young mother who physically abuses her baby. Feeling overwhelmed and aware that she's not coping after the birth of her third child, she sends desperate cries for help.

A heart-wrenching film that illustrates the experiences of many women who suffer from post-natal depression.
