When four-year-old Adam is taken to the hospital and separated from his mother, she refuses to accept the situation and persuades Lucy, the head nurse, to let her stay by his side. Lucy tries to act in Adam’s best interest above all else, but soon realizes that the reality is far more complex than it first appeared, and that the story of the boy and his devoted mother is anything but simple. Director Laura Wandel, who received wide acclaim for her debut film Playground (2021), returns with a powerful drama that opened Critics’ Week at the Cannes Film Festival.
