A touching and edifying film about not-pleasant sides of women's emancipation.
Four inseparable girl-friends from childhood - Louise, Sue, Karla and Dianne, courageous, independent and energetic feminists suddenly find themselves on the threshold of Balzac's age in the unsettled state of their private life.
After a thousand torments the ladies come to the conclusion, that only a birth of child can give them the meaning of life. And each of them gets down to the realization of the idea with an enviable enthusiasm.
It is clear, that the most difficult stage must be a search of potential daddies for the future kids.
In various ways, but, of course, from the point of view of David's fans, Louise was the luckiest!
Each normal woman can only dream of such a tactful, charming, responsive and unselfish colleague.
At first Louise and Ian decide to use achievements of a modern science, which, as known, evolved dramatically in the area of the prolongation of the human race. But the nature nevertheless is justly triumphant.
In addition to everything, the film proves once more a good idea: a science is a science, our wishes are our wishes, but children nevertheless are born from love.
The TV mini-series brought to David the first national success and the first award of AFI.
Well, at long last!
That's what a good role in a good film means!
