ストーリー
Das Fremde in mir follows Rebecca (32), a young woman who, along with her boyfriend Julian (34), is eagerly awaiting the birth of their first child. After giving birth to a healthy boy, Rebecca expects to feel an instant maternal bond but finds herself struggling emotionally instead. She feels overwhelmed and unable to connect with her baby, leading to feelings of helplessness and desperation. Unable to admit these struggles to anyone, not even Julian, Rebecca spirals into a deep darkness, realizing that she is becoming a threat to her child. It's only through unconditional love that she hopes to find her way back.
