Thirty-four-year-old Nina falls head over heels in love with Alex, a former colleague of hers. How is she going to hide this from Jelle, her husband, and Kate their four-year-old daughter and Chris their one-year-old son?
Chris suffers from epilepsy and regularly stays in hospital for long periods of time. Nina, for whom her children are her everything, then goes with him. She spends the long nights with Alex. The contact becomes more intimate and more frequent. Even if the hospitalizations are no longer necessary.
Nina's relationship with Jelle is fragile. She's tired of him breaking his promise to stop smoking weed. Is a weekend trip to Antwerp the two of you the solution?
Nina's conscience gnaws, her mind grinds. Will she manage to make the right/good decision at the right time?
