While the doctors are completely at a loss to explain how this could have happened, Leila's father Attila is beside himself. In his opinion, the doctors botched the operation. From day to day, he gets more and more involved in this thought and gets into a downward spiral that seems to have no end. Meanwhile, the family members drift further and further away from each other and become increasingly estranged. One day Attila finally makes a decision that will have consequences...
