At nearly 40 years, Fran and Alina have been together for half a lifetime. Alina is ready to have children, but Fran thinks things are going well and sees no need to mess around and have to change diapers. When the gynecologist informs them that Fran's sperm are "few, vague and abnormal" and that Alina is premenopausal at 37, things become even more complicated. Alina wants to undergo fertilization treatment, and Fran wants to be left alone to get on with life. It is time to decide: Fran, between being a father and being free, and Alina, between motherhood and continuing with Fran.
