About
Having a baby should be easy, right? And yet... Three couples who seem completely different at first sight, turn out to have one thing in common: they are unable to conceive. Against their will they form a club. A club you don't want to belong to. There they are, staring into shame in the chilly waiting room of the Fertility Department: Bert and Kirstie, Ziggy and Charlie, Ellen and Ellen. None of them thought they would ever end up with the aloof academic and somewhat strange fertility doctor Eva Deseure to make their dream come true. They also never expected to form a close friendship with each other. Yet it happens. Because they feel that the outside world does not understand them. The outside world; a world full of baby showers, screaming toddlers and the recurring question 'when are you going to start having children?' But is this a real club? How well do they really know each other? Are they really friends or are they just fleeing the harsh reality together?
