Young doctor, Nohr works in the emergency room to become a general practitioner. In this competitive environment, her fighting spirit and motivation have been put to the test. “It’s not a job for a woman!”, She would almost let herself be convinced.

Faced with such confusion, only the acceptance of the other, but also of oneself, will put an end to an unreasonable gender struggle.
