According to legend, the pelican pecks open its own breast to nourish its hungry chicks with its blood. A mother, who is a horse trainer, adopts an orphan named Raya, who is unable to perceive familial love like others due to deep emotional wounds from childhood, sometimes displaying extreme behavior that troubles her mother and sister. The mother makes a selfless decision between herself and her adoptive daughter. This work by a female director explores the eternal topic of motherhood through a suspenseful and thrilling narrative.
