Emma discovers her freedom through submission, Lejla through courage, and Ruth shares how she once felt overwhelmed by having a uterus and the ability to carry a child. Seven women reflect anonymously on their realities and share their most intimate insights. What does it mean for them to exist as individuals perceived as female in a world that is not necessarily designed for them? The focus is on femininity, sex, and life itself.
