In acest documentar intim, regizoarea Marieke Schellart dezvaluie lupta ei impotriva ceasului biologic. Ar vrea sa aiba copii, dar nu a gasit inca barbatul potrivit. Pentru a avea mai mult timp la dispozitie, ea vrea sa isi prelungeasca perioada de fertilitate prin inghetarea ovulelor, operatie interzisa in Olanda. Marieke vorbeste cu sinceritate despre planurile si indoielile ei cu prietenii si familia, fiind sustinuta de acestia, dar intampinand si rezistenta pe parcurs.
