Zoe.

Zoe.

Come on. Wake up.

Someone went to bed too late, last night.

- You eat them one by one? -Yes.

Does they taste better?

- We are late. -Are you going to pick up the pomegranate for me?

You're with daddy tonight.

Oh, come on, the shoes. Little feet.

Oh là, là, what's going with you, they're growing every day.

Come on, let's go.

How is she? -She's great, she's at school.

- You pick up her today, is that wright? - Of coarse, my day.

- I know. - And I have her on Saturday as well.

On my weekend?

I have her every Saturday until the holidays because of football.

Read the schedule.

I did. I read wrong again.

So confusing, this back and forth.

That's why we have a detailed schedule in writing.

- Can we talk about this next month? - What is that supposed to know?

We can twist a couple of days because they are sending me on a convention again.

I don't want to discuss this on the phone. We'll meet at the mediator next week.

- But I'm gonna miss... - We gonna finalize the custody agreement in 3 months, anyway.

- I'm gonna miss days with her. - We'll talk later.

Yesterday's results. Check last week.

- OK. -I don't know.

He has said something that the results haven't been accurate.

Really? Has he read the report?

Everything all right?

Like I'm missing half her life.

Did you quit the New York Center for Immunology yourself?

- Yes. -Your results have been excellent.

My husband is British. After the birth of my daughter, we moved to London.

And your American visa?

I have the French and American passports.

- You are not planning to move again? -We love Berlin.

We moved here about 2 years ago and we intend to stay.

O.k., good. You still have to speak to Prof. Wolf.

He is the one making the final decision, he will be back on Tuesday.

- Perfect. -Thank you.

Thank you.

Mom, do you know what's the best Bang?

- Where do you hear the Big Bang? -At school.

Yes, I love you more than the Big Bang.

What's before the Big Bang, mom?

Hach ... Maybe nothing.

The Big Bang created time, space, matter, gravity, everything.

But maybe nothing is everything.

If nothing is everything, everything could be nothing.

True!

Sweet dreams.

- Your mother loves you. -My mother loves me.

Can you stay here a little more?

- I'm afraid. -Afraid of what?

Hairy monsters.

Hairy monsters?

Oh, is that one?

Ooh, that is a scary one.

I like to tickle you.

Why did time pass so quickly when we are together?

Time is relative.

Einstein discovered this, but he didn't mean it that way.

What he meant was ... I don't know.

Time flies when we have fun.

She gets another fly. It's a cat.

A cat in a tuxedo with a bow tie. Here. À toi.

- Cat. -Cat.

- Oh ...

Hey, how's my princess?

- I missed you. - I missed you too daddy.

- We'll have fun today. -What do we do?

I thought a schedule go to snorkeling in the water park.

- Oh yeah. -Yes. But before...

- Where's your bag? -In your room, Zoe.

Can you pick her up from school on Tuesday?

Magda has a class there.

- I can get it from you around 7. -Why can't you?

Um ... I have an interview.

In immunology.

- Yah, I probably can. -Thanks.

Listen, I think we should start looking for someone more reliable.

Yes, I know, but Zoe likes her.

Not so stormy, number 9.

- What you up to? -I want to see her play.

- It's my day. - From half past eleven it is only half past ten.

I have read the new plan.

Fine, but can you please leave at 11:30 without a drama?

I can do that, I think.

Good, Zoe! Come on, go on!

Come on, Emily!

Made super good.

1, 2, 3, the.

go, go, go!

"How was it swimming? How's she doing? Was she having fun?"

"Is everything okay?"

Call James.

Here is James. Please behind ...

Berlin, water park, accidents today.

Not a suitable event.

Wasserwelt Berlin. Swim with fish ...

- "Yes."

- Hey. -Morning.

- Where is she? -On the terrace.

She has a bruise on her arm. From where?

I don't know, probably from football or school.

- Do you think I hurt her? -It was just a question.

Oh god.

- Hello, Magda. -Hey.

- How are you? -Good.

My kitty.

We have to go. Get ready, honey.

- Why is Magda here? -I have a meeting with a client.

On Sunday? You should have called me instead of the babysitter.

As if you weren't going to order Magda.

- Not on weekends. -Sure, of course.

She had a nightmare. Something with the big bang.

- That was an issue at school. -OK.

How was it swimming?

There was a little yellow fish, Jerry, who followed me.

- He was in love with her. -What else.

Magda, you know, I'll pick her up tomorrow.

Yes. Have a good day.

Thank you, too.

Oh god, she sneezes.

- Did you blow dry her hair? -It was 25 degrees. Relax yourself.

- I'll miss you so much. -You me too.

Okay. Let’s go. We are going to be late.

What are you doing today?

- We are going to the zoo. -Oh yes? With who?

- Uh ... only we 2. -A lot of fun.

- I want to swim with Jerry. -You were just there.

- I want to anyway. -Hey, don't tug on the bag.

- You're nasty. -But that hurts.

Come on now, march.

We'll be swimming with Jerry soon, I promise.

Sorry for being late.

Hi.

Zoe, this is Akil, an old friend.

Hello, Zoe. How are you?

- Good. And you? -Good.

We'll try again.

Look at that.

- Over there. -Yes.

Bonjour. Maybe they speak French.

There, a Frenchman. What do we call him?

- Jean Pierre. -Hey. Yesterday.

Oh ...

It's so cute. - That's right.

They are still there, you see.

What is he doing?

He's looking at us.

He is thinking. - Yes.

Wow, the jungle.

- Atchoo. -Ooh, no.

I have a headache. I want some medicine

Ou, ou, you don't have a fever. I know when you are better because ...

- Strawberry tastes great. -Exactly. Allez, au dodo.

You know my love, you should not be scared because of the big bang.

- It happened 13 billion years ago. -I'm not scared.

- You had a nightmare? -No, I didn't.

- You sure? -Yes.

Okay.

Can you sing me my song? - All right.

Come on.

- Later we go to the playground. -Yes.

You smell so good.

- Love you. -Love you. Have fun.

Hey. - How is she?

She is at school, fine. Just a slight cold.

Listen the mediator meets us today.

- Today? - Ya.

- What time? - 4:30

Doesn't go Wednesday or Thursday? I have the afternoon off for Zoe.

No, she's busy all week.

What a shit.

O.K. fine. I call Magda to pick her up.

- Okay, see you then. -OK.

"Neither party can claim additional days for business travel."

It will be added to the package.

Well, my job requires traveling, not his.

How long have you been away in the past few months?

- 4, 5 days? -9.

Exactly. I was in London for a week.

You only mess up the plan if you change everything.

I think the scheme is satisfactory.

Are you find the sentence satisfactory?

Yes, it is good.

Then we are done.

I will send you the papers.

You sign and we'll forward it to the court.

Thank you. - Thank you.

Have we clarified that now?

You don't rest until you curtail all my rights.

Why don't you give me more time after a trip?

We agreed to have joint custody.

I hoped that we would get along better.

You hoped to have more time for yourself.

That is probably absurd.

I thought that was the best but I realize she misses me.

She never says anything about that.

- But to me. -Then don't work that much.

My work, is my only income.

Can't he support you? Of course not.

I hope at some point you will notice

how lucky you were that I never asked for anything

I just want to protect her. Persistence gives security.

Does that mean that Zoe doesn't feel safe with me?

You are an awful human being. Awful!

Are you ready?

Can I walk you to the car?

- You really do it. -What?

Can I hug you please?

James...

We were so happy when we were all together.

No, we weren't. James, it wasn't me.

- Why did you do that? -I didn't do anything.

Please, I can't breathe.

Do you think it will ever get better between us?

Can't we be nicer to each other for them?

I only want the best for you.

All right.

Will you pick them up tomorrow I have a job interview.

No, I have plans.

You said you can.

It's not working. Can't you put it off?

- He's only here on this one day. -Then she just gets confused.

Is that why you don't jump in?

With the job, I would no longer have to travel and earn more.

You see, your work always comes first.

What are you talking about? I gave up everything for London.

You were released in New York.

It is not true and you know that.

We are in Berlin for your work.

Please don't make a scene.

I can no longer afford the private school.

It's a fantastic school and Zoe loves it.

What is wrong with you

- Hi. -Hi.

Sorry I'm late.

Has she eaten yet?

She wasn't very hungry. I think she has a cold,

but she has no fever. -Hm.

Hey ...

Are you sleeping?

I just want to watch TV.

Hm ... don't eat anything?

- I don't like broccoli. -You don’t like broccoli.

- I can make you some pasta. -No.

Okay.

All right.

- She is a touch warm. - Yes, she was coughing a bit.

I hope it's not flu.

- Okay thanks. -Okay, bye.

- Bye, bye.

Love of my life.

Thanks for coming by.

I feel terrible and Zoe is sick now.

What a day.

But now you are done, with that agreement.

Sure. Then every time we disagree on a vacation plant we can go to court.

You know...

Yesterday when we were together in the zoo

It was like we were a family.

I never felt that with James, it was never happy.

He never trusted me as a mother

I was always doing it wrong.

You are a wonderful mother.

Well, I don't know, but it's nice that you say that.

Ah ... wake up, love.

You have to go, she'll wake up soon.

Sweetie?

Hey ...

Zoe.

Zoe! Zoe!

Zoe ... -

Zoe ... she is not waking up.

Does she have fever?

I don't think so, but she threw up.

Zoe. Zoe.

Zoe, baby, can you hear me? Zoe can you hear me?

We get to see a doctor, okay?

- Do you hear me, my love?

Oh my poor darling.

- They are coming. How is she? -She is not waking up.

Oh my darling my darling ...

My poor darling, what happens to you?

Mommy is here with you.

Did she hit her head?

Why? What is it?

I'm not sure.

Hello.

- What's her name? How old? -Zoe Lewis. 7.

- Are you the mother? -Yes.

Zoe. Zoe, can you hear me?

- Any history of illness? -Nothing serious. -Allergies? -No.

How long has she unconscious?

She was like this, this morning. She was kind of sleepy, last night.

- Vital parameters unremarkable! Access? -Yes.

- Has she ever unconscious in the past? -No.

Have you any painkillers or sleeping pills around the house?

Sleeping pills but they are locked up.

- We have to go. Finished? -What's happening?

- Who was with her yesterday? Sir, were you with your daughter? -I'm not her father.

- High. -Where are we going?

We are going to the Uni-clinic.

James? We need to go to the emergency room with Zoe.

She is not well. I don't know! I... No one knows yet!

We don't know anything yet. Please meet me at the uni-clinic. Yes.

Magda, it is Isabelle. Please call me as soon as you get this. Thank you.

Sir, meet us at the uni-clinic.

- Please meet me there. -OK.

Any block to the head yesterday?

- No, I don't know, I wasn't with her all day! -Was she feeling sick last night?

She had a cold and was sneezing.

She didn't have a fever, so I didn't give her medication.

- Should I have given her anything? -No.

OK. Wake up, Zoe.

Rose, this is Isabelle. Zoe's mother, yes.

No, she is not coming to school. She is...

Can you please find out if she fell out of the swing of the pirate boat yesterday?

Can you ask her teacher I'm waiting.

- Did you take sleeping pills? -Yes why?

I only collect information.

Could she have fallen out of bed without you noticing?

No, she was lying in her bed today.

Even if I did, I would have heard them.

Yes? Are you sure?

Okay, thanks, I'm calling you. Thank you.

She didn't fall in school.

- Is that your blood pressure?

- Mhm. Oxygen? -It's low.

- Is your breathing okay? -Yes, she breathes.

- It's too low, for a child, isn't it? -A little slow.

- Would you please say what's going on? -75.

Now please say what's going on!

- My darling ... -Rise again.

- You are fine, right? -Hm...

What do we have? -Patient, 7 years old.

Airways free, normal breathing, stable circulation.

Heart rate only dropped to 60, now over 90.

BZ normal. Pupil difference and GCS 9.

Bring them to the CT.

- I am the mother. -Dr. Haas. Please wait here.

We have to do a CT scan.

I don't understand!

She was tired, but she wasn't that bad, was she?

She was asleep when I came.

Of coarse!

James is on his way. you should go, really.

Call me when you know anything, please.

She has intracranial bleeding.

We need to get her to surgery as soon as possible.

What happened?

Since there are no injuries, it could be an aneurysm.

Dr. Winter is the best surgeon here.

Please sign form.

What's happening? Did she say where it hurts?

She is unconscious.

- Where is she now? -You have to have an emergency operation.

- She has intracranial bleeding. -What? What happened t her?

I don't know! She didn't wake up this morning.

Hye, I am the father of Zoe Lewis. She is sent to the surgery

but I need to speak to the doctor in charge.

Okay. Just a minute.

There she is. Dr. Haas?

I am the father of Zoe Lewis. Where is she?

- She is already set for surgery. -Can I see her please?

- The sooner we relieve the pressure is better. -I need to see her!

Okay, I can understand that this is terrible difficult, but all you can do is "wait".

Okay? She is in very good hands.

It's over an hour.

- Can they tell us anything? -No idea.

- It is Magda.

Hi.

No, she is not well.

We are in the hospital.

Did Zoe hurt in the playground yesterday? Has she...

What do you mean?

Okay.

No no no. No Please.

I'll let you know when something's happening. Bye.

- What is? -I do not know either.

Zoe hit her back on a bicycle, which

was on the bottom of a slide.

- Where on the back? -I do not know exactly.

Magda didn't say anything because Zoe was fine, she didn't get cry.

Why you trust Magda, she is never right.

Zoe has no visible injuries,

so it's probably an aneurysm.

Why didn't you want a real nanny? You never listen to me!

If you hadn't ask for mediation we wouldn't be talking that because I would have been with Zoe.

If you didn't want to separate it wouldn't be any mediation in the first place.

Every couple has difficult times.

They work it out especially when they got a kid.

Well, I offered you to go to someone to help us and you ignored me until it was too late.

And by the way not everyone goes through that anger ...

Tell me about ...

In 3 years there was no intimacy ...

Sex?

What is wrong with you.

- It matters in a relationship. -I agree.

- You are the one who pushed me away. -Do you want to do this again now? This is the proper time?

It was my fault that I lost my look since the pregnancy.

Do you realize how ridiculous that question is?

Because you can't handle a little bit of truth?

Truth?

James, the way I look after Zoe was born has nothing to do with you not touch ...

You are wright, it has nothing to do but the way you look made

you bitter and angry.

Nothing is more unattractive.

I wasn't bitter or angry, I was miserable.

I had to loose my father in the same month.

And when I visited him, I was a bad mother.

It wasn't like that.

Do you remember,

what you did to me when I cried after his death?

You didn't cry, you were hysterical.

You were next to you, I wanted to calm you down.

You wanted to calm me down?

That's what you mean, Mr. Good Guy.

Mr. Perfect, who is always in good shape.

Hm?

I realized something terrible about you

after she was born.

You subordinate everything to your needs.

Because I wanted to work a year after giving birth?

- Six months. -And if so.

Should I always be dependent on you?

- I was worried about Zoe. -What worries?

You can't stand your partner outperforming you.

- You're crazy. -You would have died sooner.

Exactly, that's what I mean.

I'm talking about Zoe and you about a job that doesn't go anywhere.

And that I'm in the way of your career ...

You were never good at anything, that's your problem.

Do you know why I've been with you so long

no matter how unbearable it was?

Just because I love her so much.

And because you ruined my confidence.

But to cheat, that was enough.

You are so gullible.

How do you mean?

He uses you.

- What should he want from me? -No idea. Money.

What money, please?

Did he need any papers, an EU visa?

I don't know, but the way he fucks me he can use me too.

You are so vulgar

The truth is that you've always had problems.

- Oh really? -Mhm.

Obviously only with you.

Maybe you're just unattractive.

And because of all this, Zoe is sick now, seriously ill.

It has nothing to do with it.

Good day. I am Dr. Winter, the surgeon.

How are you?

It is stable.

We removed the clot and stopped the bleeding

but a region of the brain has suffered increased pressure.

And what exactly does that mean?

That there is a possibility of permanent brain damage.

The next 24 hours decide whether there will be an improvement.

And whether she survives.

I'm sorry, but no one is allowed to see her in the next 24 hours.

In the meantime, brain pressure has dropped ...

How is she doing?

Your vital functions look good.

- That means she gets through? -Yes.

Yes, she is a healthy girl, of course that helps.

Yes that's her.

The only question is what life awaits you.

What do you mean?

The swelling was particularly massive in the motor region.

She is currently in a coma.

She ... will be healthy when she wakes up?

You can't say that yet.

Nor do we know if she will wake up soon.

Or whether it still takes weeks.

You have to be patient.

- The work? -Yes.

Just go, I'll stay with her.

I'll be back at 6 p.m.

Maybe you will get something to eat first.

- Do you want something too? -No.

You don't go before I'm back, right?

Of course not.

This is the worst thing you can imagine.

Everything will be fine, for sure.

At least she'll live.

You don't have to sit around here.

Of course I want to be here with you.

Ah ... my mother.

Hi, Mom.

Should I book a hotel for you or ...

Drive home and sleep a little, I'll stay here the night.

No thanks, I'd rather be here.

I would like to be alone with her.

- You know it's my right ... -It's not about rights.

I talked to the doctor again.

He says the bleeding occurred mostly at night.

I know.

Was he with you?

Don't start now.

Were you too busy noticing what's going on?

Maybe something happened

while you slept

Thank you.

- How is she? -Nothing new.

Can I do something for you, my dear?

I'm sorry.

Is okay.

Where have you been in the middle of the night

I was here.

No, I mean Monday night.

I was with you.

You left our bed at night. Where have you been?

Something happened to her head, nobody knows what.

Please excuse me.

She opened her eyes briefly.

She tried to talk and pressed my hand.

- Darling ... - Diazepam, one milligram.

Hold on tight, it's getting a little stronger now.

- What about her? -A seizure.

She is still in a coma.

Pay attention to her neck.

Some patients have seizures, they appear in clusters.

This indicates damage.

Sign up if you have any questions, yes?

Thank you.

By the way, this has arrived for you today.

Probably the ...

Custody agreement to sign.

You should go home and rest.

I hold the position here.

James?

- Hello, Magda. What is it? -I am Anna, her mother.

Hi.

How is zoe

You read the message yes, she is not well.

Tell her.

Will she get better?

We do not know that.

Tell her.

I'm sorry, you ...

Zo ... Zoe hit his head on the slide.

She was a little dizzy

but I didn’t think she did anything.

I'm really sincerely sorry.

Maybe you can bring them to justice.

At best, you can forbid her to work with children again.

I would be to the hospital with her immediately.

How could you escape that she was missing something?

I thought she had the flu.

It's my fault. I should have protected her.

No, it's up to me. It's just my fault!

I would have picked her up from school on Monday!

Unfortunately, the new CT shows that a rare complication has occurred.

Cerebral sinus vein thrombosis.

- What is that supposed to be? An infection? -No.

It has nothing to do with infection.

We'll dissolve your blood clot with medication, but ...

the EEG does not look good.

Can you see it,

after the hemorrhage has this new complication

led to even deeper damage.

There is very little brain activity at the moment.

Could that change?

That is, uh ... unlikely.

I am sincerely sorry.

- Lord Lewis?

Mr. Lewis?

Should I bring you something from below?

Just a water. Thank you.

I promise we'll go visit Jerry the fish again.

- It's so pretty, isn't it? -Yes.

I like her hair color so much, the freckles.

And it's so funny, the way it sees the world.

Look at her face, so cute.

- Everything OK? -Excuse me.

Mom.

Little angel.

The latest investigations unfortunately confirmed my suspicions.

There is no brain activity.

We can keep them here

for a while, but eventually her condition will deteriorate ...

I know it's not easy.

And there is no good time to raise the issue.

But...

I want you both ... to think about something.

Take your time, please, as much time as you need.

We have a team here that can assist you with any questions.

We have a lot of little children here

in Zoes Alter,

they are waiting.

Without knowing if they will survive the year

because they need a heart or a kidney.

Or...

- What did he say? -He wants her kidneys.

I'll clean it up.

- What are you doing? -The bag fell off.

- I'll clean it up. - She's freezing.

- It doesn't freeze. -Why not?

It is ... It is not ...

Cover them up!

My poor darling ...

- What can we do? -Nothing at all.

You know some of the best doctors, don't you?

I talked to neurologists in Paris, New York, London.

She is brain dead.

I should never have listened to the doctors

who said Bertrand could not be saved.

Mom, the therapies were torture for Dad.

It would have been exactly the same elsewhere.

But you always said

if there is no hope left, you have to keep going.

- I wouldn't give up. -Mom

Think an Marie Curie.

She fought even when her life was at stake.

But it's not about Marie Curie.

This is about Zoe and she's dead.

She is dead.

Listen to your heart, Isabelle.

Keep your mouth shut!

It's not about listening to your heart

or karma nonsense, it's about neurology.

It was wrong to raise you in France.

- Like your father, you don't believe in anything. -Yes.

I'm sorry, sorry.

I'll take you to your hotel, I can't do that now.

I cannot sign the consent to donate organs.

My princess.

"Dr. Fischer's research goes too far for the EU."

Hey ... you don't answer the phone.

I know your mother ...

Everyone is panicking, telling miracle stories,

I can not handle this.

I didn't see you in the hospital, where were you?

- Can I ... -No.

Is he there?

Not even that stops you.

Worth...

Do you think signing the statement was easy for me?

When I was in the hospital, her blood tests came.

Your kidneys are not ...

In any case, they can no longer be donated.

But if you sign now

then at least part of her will be able to live on.

Sorry, I know it sounds ...

I will sign tomorrow.

I will be traveling for a few days.

Where?

In case it takes longer, will you wait?

I'm here.

I love you and everything that goes with it.

I love you too.

Can I be alone with her one last time, please?

Naturally.

Love of my life.

Isabelle, you're doing the right thing.

I know.

Isabelle?

The doctor says she fell asleep peacefully.

Can i see her room Sorry?

Are you planning to leave?

- Only a day away from the city. -Really?

I'll be back in 24 hours.

Nobody can understand what a beautiful child she was.

What a terrible loss that is.

We need each other, Isabelle.

- Why are you leaving? -What professional.

What? Do you just move on to the agenda?

Ms. Perrault? Cryo shipping.

Can you wait 10 minutes for the papers?

- No problem. -Thank you.

I have to work and you make it complicated.

I'm not in the way of your idiotic career.

I just thought we would help each other to let them go.

I will never let go of her.

What do you think of?

If you don't go away immediately ...

- What's this? -I'm calling the police.

- These are samples. -What's this?

- What is it? -These are your cells!

Don't open that!

I’m sorry, Isabelle.

Hi.

To Moscow Plaza please.

- Have the samples arrived? -Yes, they arrived this morning.

- Good. -Dr. Perrault?

Dr. Fischer, nice to see you again.

Come. Where have we met?

From Berlin. The conference for stem cells and immunology.

Ah yes, that's right.

- Thank you. -Where do you live?

In the Moscow Plaza, very close.

- Courageous to come to the land of evil. -By you too.

Science demands a price.

Women should have a choice about when they want to become mothers.

- Then you're a feminist. - I've never looked at it like this.

So what can I do for you?

The Pasteur Institute asks you to clone a rhesus monkey.

He had complete immunity to the H5N1 virus.

- Do you know the cost? -Yes.

You want to know beforehand whether the cells are intact.

Is the monkey not available?

A breakdown. The animal died and was burned.

You came to the result after studying your files.

There is only one biopsy.

Damn damage.

- We are so close to a vaccine. -Okay. I will call you tomorrow.

The institute should know today whether the cells could be cloned.

Understand. Then I would have to go to the laboratory now. It will take a while.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Dr. Perrault? Dr. Fischer would like to see you.

The first rhesus monkey with 23 pairs of chromosomes.

Take that and go.

Who should I clone and why?

- Are the cells intact? -Yes, but I want an answer.

- Who sends you here? -Nobody.

It's about my daughter.

She died of a brain injury two days ago.

I am truly sorry.

But human cloning is illegal and unethical.

What you read about me is not true.

They clone embryos for in vitro fertilization and come with ethics.

It's something else, it's about embryonic reproduction.

They're not copies of dead people, they're twins.

Do you see the difference and how wrong is your concern?

It may seem wrong to clone a dead child

but it's not an abnormal experiment.

There is something abnormal in its nature.

It is hardly feasible, endless complications can arise.

Cloning has been practiced for over a decade.

Single cells, no implantable embryo.

I cloned this dog. He was only one month old.

A tumor destroyed his skull. Do you want that for your daughter?

What was the cause of death of the first dog?

A cancer.

His cells were cancerous.

My Zoe was very healthy. She would have been very old.

You know it's not that easy.

I know all the risks, but I know we have gotten better.

It's just not done, officially

for fear of law enforcement.

Or just nobody knows how to make a profit from it?

How do you want to afford it?

I will find a way.

You want me to fulfill your wealthy fantasy.

There are countless orphans who need a mother.

War and natural disasters give you free choice.

I hadn't expected so much cynicism from you.

You have First World Syndrome when you see children as goods.

Children die everywhere.

Is that why mothers come here and ask me to clone their children?

A mother who loses her child against the world's misery ...

I don't feel guilt, just pain.

Where I come from doesn't matter.

Or maybe it is, and that's unfair. I can have this dream.

I also know that it is not impossible.

Even if the chances are slim,

I won't give up until I've tried everything

I'm sorry, I ... I can't do it.

It violates my ethical principles.

It's also too risky.

- No one knows about it except us. -No.

Many employees would be involved.

I could lose everything.

You wouldn't lose everything.

Losing everything is different.

Incidentally, it does not exist in any culture

a word for a parent who has lost a child.

There are orphans, widows, but if you lose your child, not a word.

I wish I was never born.

I wish there was no air

no ocean, no trees, no light.

We were in Paris 2 years ago.

I cannot bring the dead back.

When we met, it seemed

They wanted more than money through in vitro fertilization for women

of tyrants and corrupt business people.

I am sincerely sorry.

It must be insanely difficult for you, I understand you well.

I can help you have another child.

How old are you 45?

It would be easy to do. Gen editing corrects all errors.

I know.

But I don't want another child.

Stop it.

Stop, I said!

What is wrong with you?

- God, why are you so irritable? -There's something stuck.

What's so funny here?

- Come on, tell me. -No.

Why not? Is it a secret?

You can tell me. - Better not. No.

Don't you wanna say what's going on?

- Ah, nothing at all. -Really?

I won't buy you.

Also?

I met an immunologist I know from a conference.

It wasn't a monkey she wanted to clone.

Oh my goodness. What did she want?

An army of your own?

She wanted to clone the child she just lost.

That's crazy.

People are really crazy.

- At the same time, she is a scientist. -Exactly.

You should know better.

Hi?

- Here is Dr. Fisherman. -Yes?

I still have your daughter's photo here.

- Yes ... the photo. - Can you come over?

- Well, I'm waiting for you in the foyer. -Is good. See you.

Please don't look at me like that.

I'm just trying to read your mind

This is not possible.

I didn't want you to leave without that.

- Thank you. -Is it going to Berlin?

No, first somewhere else.

Find an unscrupulous doctor to do it?

And.

Please take our cryo shipping.

Thanks, I have one. It would also be too risky for you.

Not as long as we don't clone anything.

Good luck.

Incidentally, you were wrong, I checked.

There's a Hebrew word for a parent

that his child loses. Probably because of the age of the language.

Losing a child was normal at the time.

It won't work, you know that.

10,000.

Then it is still unlikely that you can discharge it.

They would have nothing but grief and suffering.

I'm not afraid of that.

You will not have enough money.

Then I look for something where I can do it myself.

Is that really your wish?

Clone your own daughter?

Do you have any moral concerns?

No.

You make yourself an experiment.

Nobody knows who or what arises from it and could be terrible.

I know.

- see you again - see you again

It would be absolutely insane if you were successful.

You will be admitted as an IVF patient.

The hormone treatment starts tomorrow.

And we need other eggs, many.

That would be expensive, but I will probably think of something.

Plan a lot of time.

Multiple follicles. They respond well to treatment.

Embryos developed from 2 of the 62 egg cells.

One is good, the other satisfactory.

Interestingly, these eggs were your own.

Has the donor egg become nothing?

No.

Your uterine lining is too thin, so keep taking hormones.

Next week we will use the embryo.

Everything looks good. Stay there for half an hour.

We'll keep you here to monitor implantation.

Since it's not a regular pregnancy,

mutations and anomalies can always occur.

It is just an attempt.

Hey.

It looks beautiful.

I spoke to Anton.

And?

You promised never to do anything like that.

Anton shouldn't have said anything.

He worries what could threaten you.

If he unpacks, I'm done.

Only 4 people know it, now 5.

It is too late to stop.

- Is she already ... -Yes.

Why are you doing this? You said it was wrong.

Each case stands for itself. Who are we to decide that?

- But you made your decision. -Looks like.

I think it is justified in this particular case.

Do you love me laura

No, not enough for a life on the run

just because you have to be the first in everything.

- You should get to know them. -You speculate on pity.

If you go on like this, I'll leave you.

We already had to move here.

Where do we want to go now?

- Mars? -That's not funny.

Do you know what that is?

Your heart.

Just a couple of cells, but it is already beating.

- Moment. Can i see her again -Naturally.

Hello, my name is Isabelle. Am i early

No, Thomas is too late, as always.

- Come in. -For her.

Get it, you have to be hungry.

All the time. I'm hungry for everything Russian.

Pickled cucumbers, herring, cabbage soup.

Dr. Fischer, I mean Thomas, he told me

Do you illustrate children's books?

- Yes. -That is wonderful.

Are you here with your husband?

No, Zoe's father and I live separately.

I met a wonderful man

but I decided to do this on my own.

Frankly, I am not enthusiastic about it.

I know.

That's why I'm here.

- You have sons? -2.

- And how old? -7 and 6.

You are with friends.

I thought it would be inappropriate if they were here.

No, I understand that, it's clear.

I...

I can see Zoe's face.

I still remember her voice

how your skin feels.

No longer because of their smell.

It is completely gone.

If I smelled her little head

while I was telling or reading something, I forgot everything else.

It was so easy and wonderful.

But even if it works, it still wouldn't be them.

Her hair color, her smile,

even their likes and dislikes,

that's all set in our cells.

It is confirmed again and again the more research is done about it.

I just want to ... smell her little head again.

women talk?

And.

The backbone is well formed, everything is there.

2 hands, 2 feet, one head.

By the way, we have now managed 12 weeks.

12 weeks and 2 days.

Nice that you called, it's very lonely.

It wasn't easy after we moved here.

This language ... But I have the boys.

- They keep you busy. -That's an understatement.

- They are very sweet. -Yes, if you want.

But usually they just argue. You don't give me a quiet minute.

It was never silent with Zoe.

She always called, talked, sang.

And when she sleeps, she snores loudly.

This is funny.

Do you also love kissing their little heads when they sleep?

They can only be kissed when they are sick.

The same with Zoe.

I like it when she has a cold, then she wants to cuddle.

Boys are very attached to their mother, right?

And.

I think it's great with a girl, she is full of energy and focused.

She can spend hours on something, building things.

Definitely from her father. He is an architect.

That sounds good.

You can call at any time if you need to.

Thank you.

You seem to get along.

- That's up to you. -What.

Isabelle...

- How are you? -Good.

May I come inside?

I don't want to argue, I'm not angry ...

I know what you are going through.

Maybe my behavior was wrong.

- I've changed. -What do you want?

What you are doing here does not suit you.

You are a different person from the death of your father.

I wanted to help, but you pushed me away and I got angry.

- Then was it my fault? -I haven't done anything wrong.

Who of us thinks we can control everything?

What you're up to is crazy and pointless.

You tell me I'm crazy?

I just want to tell you that I'm sorry.

It was not my intention to hurt you.

I wish you could forgive me.

I am partly responsible for all of this.

But I was so angry and wanted to hurt you, as a woman and as a mother.

I have to go.

You can't just forget about Zoe.

You live in a fantasy world.

We have to deal with it together.

- Are you ready? -Come to Berlin.

- I can not. -You're welcome.

You have to stop it.

I can not.

You have no right to do that. She was also my child.

You must not! Do you hear?

We try again?

Isabelle...

You still have the other embryo.

Well, we're starting in a couple of weeks.

- You need to recover first. -Yes.

- How many embryos are left? -One.

Thomas...

2, but one from a donor egg.

Do you want to save one of their eggs for an experiment?

You realize that every day the likelihood increases

that you end up in prison?

We all end up in prison.

Maybe you should think about it.

You should stay at least 6 months

if you can set that up.

- I can set it up. -I think that makes sense.

Yes. -Okay.

I hope you know what you are doing.

We're going to do another blood test

but I'm afraid you lost it again.

Can't you clone which of the somatic cells?

That does not work.

What about the cells of the dead embryo?

I can't do anything else.

I'm sorry.

How is she doing?

Not that good, I'm afraid.

- I told you leave it. -I know everyone said that.

I don't think it was the embryos.

I have managed to create healthy, implantable embryos.

- Quite an achievement. -Good for you.

Excuse me.

What I wanted to say was that we were so close.

I have to find another way.

You cannot repeat it.

- One is left. -An embryo?

Please stop it. You can't do that to her.

She would not go through another pregnancy.

It only works with a surrogate mother.

You really never give up.

Do you realize how much I suffer from it?

I look at the boys every day and think of Isabelle and Zoe.

I'm not saying anything anymore

I let myself dance around on my nose.

Because I constantly imagine that something happens to them.

You can't raise children like that.

Would the surrogate mother know what she's carrying?

Of course not.

You would just pay a woman

who has no idea what she's involved in.

You don't do all this out of kindness, I know you.

If I don’t tell Isabelle about it,

she has no hopes either.

Are you sure you are making the right decision?

No.

Hire any surrogate mother to carry Zoe.

- Yes please?

Are you going home?

Yes ... home.

Please keep me informed.

Yes I do.

- Goodbye. - see you again

It is important to me to know where you are.

- Do you speak Russian? -A little.

- How is London? -London just.

Nice to be at home.

And you, don't you want to go back to Paris?

As you know, this is not possible.

We are now at home here, we ... we feel comfortable.

And how old is your son now?

He just turned 5.

It's nice to see you.

Yes it's the same for me.

Ah.

Who is it

A friend from England. London.

Hi.

- Hi. -What is your name?

James. And what is your name?

Zoe.

Hello, Zoe.

Are we shy?

Are you visiting here?

Yes, a few days.
