Maria, a young expectant mother and uninsured beauty parlour assistant, needs her job. However, she is already a week overdue, and Maria is an easy target--she has no other choice but to work off the books until the last moment. And then, Maria's heartless boss Stelios shows her the door. Now Maria is on a birth strike, determined to keep her job. But who is going to win? Maria, or her unborn baby?
