In a thought-provoking sci-fi romance, Botanical Alvy and free-spirited Rachel tackle unconventional pregnancy in a not-so-distant future where artificial wombs grant couples the chance to share pregnancy on a more equal footing. Alvy's misgivings about this new way of birthing babies deepen as their detachable pods bond Rachel and their embryo in a manner that defies the traditional maternal role. As they navigate their own emotions and relationships, Alvy and Rachel's journey to parenthood becomes a profound debate about biological essentialism, gender roles, and the emotional ties that bind parents to their children.
