Directed by Laura Schroeder

Film Synopsis

When she gave birth for the first time, Catherine, then in her early twenties, didn't feel she was up to the responsibility of motherhood and so she placed her baby daughter Alba in the care of her mother Elisabeth.  Ten years on, Catherine is now a well-adjusted thirty-year-old and has made up her mind to take her daughter back and make a go at being a proper mother to her.  Unable to comprehend her mother's motives and perhaps resentful of her past treatment of her, Alba is reluctant to accept Catherine as her mother and even treats her with open hostility.  Elisabeth is likewise dubious about her daughter's sudden change of heart but agrees to allow her to spend a few hours with her.  Catherine is ill-prepared for the icy cold reception she receives from her mother and daughter and, on the spur of the moment, she abducts Alba and takes her to a holiday chalet beside Haute-Sûre in Luxembourg.  It is in this remote beauty spot that Catherine must do everything she can to re-establish maternal contact with the daughter if she is to avoid losing her forever...
