Hamburg-based businesswoman Maria, in her 40s, has achieved everything in her job and is married, but her being childless makes her unhappy. After another miscarriage, she learns that she will never be a mother of her life because of her age. Maria decides to check a rumor that prostitutes in Eastern Europe may sell their newborns for money. In search of a woman who could sell her a baby, Maria gets deeper and deeper into the dark world of prostitution and human trafficking. Soon, she faces serious problems as she is confronted by a brutal Russian criminal.
