Synopsis
Inspired by a real-life story, the movie tells the story of Eda (Akasya Aslitürkmen), a dancer who fell in love with Cihan (Kubilay Tunçer), a family man. When she realized that she was four months pregnant, she thought that an abortion would solve the problem. On the same night that her dance academy mate Oya (Deniz Soyarslan) made the solo show instead of her, Eda had an abortion in illegal conditions and risked her life. Her choice did not lead to death but changed her life into a living hell. Three years later she married a photographer Cenk (Murat Yıldırım) and again became pregnant. However, along with the pregnancy, some dismal happenings began to change her life and mind, frightening and hurting those around her.Actors

Anton Bartok, owner of Bartok Industries (the company which financed Brundle's teleportation experiments), oversees the labor. Veronica dies from shock after giving birth to a squirming larval sac, which splits open to reveal a seemingly normal baby boy. The orphaned child, named Martin Brundle, is taken into Bartok's care.

The film opens with Michael and Madeline attempt to conceive. It is soon apparent that they have succeeded. Michael's parents arrive for dinner: a vegan meal prepared by a now visibly pregnant Madeline. Michael's domineering mother Vivian grimaces at the food and suggests - in a passive aggressive fashion - that a more conventional diet would be healthier for the unborn baby. The conversation turns to the couple's unsuccessful search for a suitable obstetrician. Madeline has rejected Vivian's preferred doctor and friend, Dr. Sohn. Instead she has decided to consult Patricia, her old friend and midwife at an independent clinic. Vivian does not hide her disapproval. Though Michael is also skeptical, the couple visit the clinic for a tour. They meet with Patricia, who describes her natural approach to birthing. Madeline reveals that she and Michael have conceived twice before, but both pregnancies were unsuccessful.
