She is married to architect Max and mother of a young son. She rents an apartment to meet with little attractive men from her patients for sex.

When she meets one of the chosen patients, he wants to get closer to her, she suffers a nervous breakdown. She strikes the man and finally collapses. Her affairs are now known. She loses her job as a doctor, and her marriage is about to end. Together with her husband she tries to save the marriage with a therapy. Two years later, the family moved to India, where Max works as an architect. Twins are born, and family happiness seems regained. But Max still can not dismiss his wife’s doubts. The mistrust remains, and he follows her on her morning walks.

“This movie is simply fantastic. Shots are incredibly beautiful with minimalist presentation. Delicate and sensitive. Loyal yet uncompromising. The moves by the protagonist are bold and way ahead of our times. Letu0026#39;s not be the arbiter of u0026quot;moralityu0026quot; here. Passing judgement based on the male perspective of what the characters are expected to do or by the cultural standards that we have grown accustomed to or expect, is juvenile. If you are conditioned enough to look for messages in a movie then you are missing the forest.”
