It's an open secret that gynecologist Nina [Ia Sukhitashvili] also helps women terminate their pregnancies outside the hospital. When a woman dies after giving birth, the head doctor [Merab Ninidze] appoints David [Kakha Kintsurashvili] to investigate Nina's negligence. Meanwhile, Nina continues her work, both in and out of the hospital, while adhering to the demands of a patriarchal society on her and the women she treats. The film features invasive procedures filmed in intermittent shots, often so excruciatingly long that you could easily do the dishes or walk the dog without missing a thing. And you might find yourself watching the exact same scene when you return! Kulumbegashvili gives new meaning to slow.
