Madame Bortolin
Клеман, молодой парижский философ и писатель, отправлен на год преподавать в уездный городок Аррас. От тоски по столичной жизни его спасает Дженнифер, местная симпатичная парикмахерша, которая хоть и не читает Достоевского, зато здорово поет в караоке. Между ними нет ничего общего, кроме взаимного притяжения. И кажется, одной страсти достаточно, чтобы прожить счастливо, но однажды Дженнифер находит на книжном прилавке новый роман Клемана, о самой себе.

Laura
Maria Garcia (Carmen Maura) is a television journalist and she's about to be a single mother. Her career foremost in her mind, she doesn't slow down even for a minute, despite her pregnancy. She is, however, taking Lamaze classes and is quite competently coping with the romantic attentions of a man she's not very interested in. It's not at all irrelevant that her news beat includes stories on terrorism, the greenhouse effect, pollution and genetic engineering, because when her baby's due date comes and goes, she starts hearing from her infant from in the womb. It is telling her that it and many other babies are refusing to be born into such a horrible world. She learns that this is true, and that the children born through induced labor are dying.
