A mother and her daughter, at the ages of 60 and 40, live in a most horrible relationship. One day the daughter meets a man and through that, we follow her attempt to release herself from the mother, in order to fulfil the potential love affair. Her endeavouring liberation is portrayed on both sides of reality, adding a fine dimension to her character. Additionally, the play holds a handful of very powerful yet simple scenes, which leaves people in the audience with no doubt that it is a struggle for life that is performed before them.
