“With the birth of my son, a new world opened itself up with all its secrets, joys and pains, doubts and new insights, questions, tears and feelings of happiness…” An emotional documentary about the feelings and role perceptions of young mothers in France and Germany. Using as a starting point the carnets photographiques of its German author, who has been living in Paris for 20 years, the film subjectively describes themes including pregnancy and birth, breastfeeding and cord cutting, professional life and partnership.
