One day in the late 1800s, 14-year-old Lise's life changes forever. She is the eldest of her siblings, the first in her family to go to school and she is full of hope and confident about her life and future. But when her mother goes into labour, it quickly appears that something is wrong. As night falls and the labour progresses, Lise begins to understand that her childhood might be over and a lot of responsibility awaits her. Danish director Tea Lindeburg touches on topics such as religion and feminism in this nerve-racking drama, and offers actress Flora Ofelia Hofmann Lindahl (2005) a chance to show off her mesmerizing acting skills.
