In the summer of 1997, 17-year-old Aota Aoi (Kiyohara Kaya) comes to Yui Obstetrics and Gynecology as a part-time trainee nurse. She witnesses an abortion procedure firsthand and is shaken. However, the meticulous hospital director Yui Tomohiro (Seto Koji), dependable senior nurse Mochizuki Sayako (Mizukawa Asami), genial head nurse Sakaki Mie (Harada Mieko) and other staff give their full attention and support to each expectant mother. Aoi’s mother Fumika (Sakai Wakana) worries about her daughter who is awkward and poor at communicating. But Aoi supports the mothers-to-be with her own sensitivity and gentleness. |
