Synopsis

18-year-old Maggy has just become a mother. Together with her daughter Lucy she lives with her mother Eva. Maggy's life lingers on between teenage rituals and child care, vague dreams and her inability, to imagine her future.

Hoping to do better than her mother, Maggy starts looking for a family happiness, she has only a faint idea of.

Press reviews

Maggy is the 18-year-old mother of baby Lucy. One night Maggy meets Gordon in a disco, and falls for him. For a while they make a stab at being responsible parents. But this kind of lifestyle is a huge strain for two people who are barely adults. (London Film Festival 2006)
