Cleo worked as a maid in the master's house and grew up with the master's four children. The host family is a couple, the male host is a doctor, and the hostess is a chemist. One day, the hostess disappeared after making excuses for a business trip. Cleo gets pregnant after a tryst with her boyfriend in town, and the boyfriend runs away after hearing about the pregnancy. The hostess finally found out that her husband was only on a business trip for a week, but he did not plan to go home after he returned. In the end, the heroine accepted this reality with difficulty and decided to quit her job as a teacher to work in a publishing house, and told the children frankly. . Cleo eventually lost her own child to save the children playing in the sea.

The entire film is black and white, reflecting the cruel background of real life.

In addition to work, women have to face children and families, and take care of their own body and mind. It is basically impossible to cover all aspects. I have discussed these three things with my colleagues. Generally, there is still a choice. Work. Women all over the world are facing the war of life.

Only women can empathize, and Cleo told the hostess that she was pregnant and her boyfriend ran away, and the hostess took her to the hospital for support. After the male host left home, Kelio never left the hostess, and stayed with her silently at every moment when the hostess was out of control. In the end, it was Cleo who gave up her own child in order to save the child of the hostess.

There is no easy word in the adult world. Even the male protagonist probably has his last resort, although the film does not reflect it.
