Film Synopsis

Alex and Fabrizio form an ideal couple.  High-fliers, they haven't yet got around to starting a family, but they content themselves with their dog, Esperanza.  When Alex is offered a post in New York, she is initially delighted, but soon has second thoughts.  If she accepts the job, she will have to give up the idea of having a child of her own.  She is past forty and she can hear her biological clock counting down the minutes to infertility.  Unable to discuss the matter with Fabrizio, Alex decides to open her heart to a psychiatrist.  Fabrizio has his own menopausal anxieties and also decides to consult a psychiatrist, not realising that it is the same person that Alex has been seeing...
