Det virkelige liv

Efter at have født datteren Zarina befinder den tidligere så karriereorienterede Therese sig i en helt ny tilværelse, der først og fremmest består af at amme, skifte og sove. Hun prøver at få styr på sit forhold til kæresten Paul og oplever samtidig et mærkeligt skæbnefællesskab med Heidi fra Ishøj. "Er dette det virkelige liv?" spørger Therese sig selv, mens verdenssituationen, jobbet på tv-stationen og den hellige integritet fortoner sig i barnegråd og bleskift.
