Strangers
"It takes courage to love life," says Eva, and the pregnant 22-year-old should know. She has a low-paying, unrewarding job, a mother who refuses to see what she doesn′t want to, a father who is losing his mind, and a baby growing within her from a boyfriend who left her. Yet Eva loves life.

And when she suddenly realizes that there is a little human being within her, listening to her every word, she decides against an abortion. Little by little, she begins to share her love of life with the child in her womb. With words, music and sounds, she describes the world to her baby, shyly at first, then more and more confidently. Her spirits rise even more when she meets and falls in love with the sensitive Michal, who is perhaps her guardian angel – or a fallen angel. Just as she is reaching an inner freedom, she learns that her delivery will be difficult and that there is a chance her child could die. By now, however, Eva has found the courage to face every challenge: through her unborn child, who responds to her and urges her to go on – for its sake, and for hers.
"Ono" is an emotionally complex study of a young woman whose unwanted pregnancy becomes a precious gift.
