在这部总有意外剧情片中,5位导演拍摄的5部短片，都围绕一个共同的主题——孕育生命的女人。故事的女主角，包括患有严重精神疾病但是已经怀孕四个月的女画家；意外怀孕的修女；怀了双胞胎、却一直纠结于要不要孩子的女人；以及丈夫出轨的孕妇等等。用5个故事讲述不同境遇中的女性，在孕育生命的过程中所遭遇的冷暖人生。有人狂喜，有人悲伤，有人因新生命的到来而重生，有人却因为这个突然降临的生命改变了自身的命运。5部短片各有侧重，集结在一起，却是一曲充满母性的爱的赞歌。
The film is a high-concept project with five stories exploring the themes of motherhood and pregnancy, directed by women filmmakers from five former Yugoslav republics. "Croatian Story" follows an anguished painter who must decide whether or not to keep one of her unborn twins, diagnosed with Down syndrome. "Serbian Story" finds an expectant mother in the same emergency room with a charming killer. "Bosnia-Herzegovina Story" centers on a financially strapped Sarajevo family whose son's lover is pregnant. "Macedonian Story" unfolds in a clinic where a drug addict struggles to keep her baby, and "Slovenian Story" ends the omnibus on a humorous note with a nun who finds her own way to immaculate conception.
