Its a drama about a woman who helps her friend to have in illegal abortion in 1987 Romania during the waning years of Ceausescu communist rule. We see how the dynamics of their friendship and the relationship of the woman with her boyfriend gets affected during the course of the event. The film is very realistic and very grim throughout. It doesn't go for any cheap turns towards the end.
