Maria (Margherita Buy) is a mature woman facing pregnancy and premature birth. The woman feels unprepared and these changes in her life bring her into a state of turmoil.
After 13 minutes, we witness a sequence that Margherita Buy has struggled to achieve: a full-frontal nude. To help the actress combat the awkwardness, director Francesca Comencini also stripped completely naked during the shoot, so as to put Buy at ease. A full-frontal nude, actually, much covered by the play of shadows and the dark scene. One minute later, we can admire Margherita Buy naked again, in a sex scene in bed. Fifty minutes later, Margherita Buy is naked and sitting on the bed. Behind her is a man massaging her back.
