Programme:
A couple journey through a dilapidated holiday resort. Both of them hope that the woman will be able to give birth to their long-awaited baby with the help of Dr Gould, an experimental doctor who lives in the ruins. There are no children in this near future, as all new births suffer from a terrible mutation that quickly turns them into monsters. After several miscarriages, will this woman finally have the baby that everyone has been dreaming of? In this adaptation of a short story by J. G. Ballard, Nordlund turns an abandoned Tróia into a dystopian universe of her own invention.
