From Time Out Film Guide
Emma (Baye) discovers that she's both pregnant and HIV-positive - then that she was infected by her husband Charles (Sandre), a secret bisexual. Relationships with family and friends become strained as her life begins to disintegrate. Despite worthy intentions, Margolin, on his first time out as director and co-writer, sketches only a bare outline of the issues raised.Author: AO
