Short Description

Ambitious actress Rebecca is struggling to conquer Hollywood, and she lives modestly with her boyfriend Alex in a trailer waiting for fame. After years of waiting and failure, Rebecca finally receives a generous offer to star in a TV series, but she also knows she is pregnant and faces a difficult choice.

The film is about a strong woman who has to make difficult choices.

The film's plot helps to understand how difficult it is for an ambitious woman to choose between family and self-actualization. The film's main idea is to show that with kindness and support. It is possible to overcome all difficulties. There is nothing more valuable than family values.

Storyboard

Rebecca is under intense pressure from her boyfriend, Alex, and her mother. Alex does not accept abortion and tries to convince his girlfriend of this terrible idea.

Rebecca realizes that if she misses an incredible opportunity and gives up the lead role now, her life will change forever with the baby's birth. She is terrified that she will have to spend her life in a trailer with children and unrealized dreams, and she decides to have an abortion without saying anything to Alex.

Having achieved success in Hollywood, Rebecca realizes she can no longer hide what she has done and tells Alex everything. Alex tries to leave Rebecca but admits he still loves her. He sees Rebecca's desperation and supports her by staying by her side.

Why is this film important now?

Of course, there can be different reasons for abortion, but my story will help you to feel ambitious and robust as a woman, not only to cope with difficult choices.

My film will help you look at the problem of abortion from a different perspective. It will help women understand they are not alone; they can cope with all the difficulties. Do not keep silent; partners will hear them. I encourage women to dialogue with their men as often as possible.
