This film by the author duo Geislerová and Mazúr builds on the concept of the so-called liquid love introduced by sociologist Zygmunt Bauman and the work of theorist Elisabeth Badinter in its critical analysis of the question of predestination of women for the mother role realized through a collage of shots of women symbolizing motherhood as well as emancipation which questions the inevitability of this frequently debated social role.

English A short experiment returning Ester Geislerová to the filmmaking world. And it is, of course, based on life experience and a change of perspective. It is no coincidence that under the direction of her sister, Aňa Geislerová, mother and actress, declaims several professional theses. ()
