In a world where pregnancy seems to be a public affair, one expectant mom decides to go against the grain. She chooses the company of her book over chatty fellow moms-to-be. But her silent rebellion doesn’t go unnoticed. Her doctor, in a surprising twist, accuses her of making others uncomfortable.
