Mutterlüge

As a therapist, she is successful. As a mother, she feels like a failure. But no one knows this. Until a patient arrives who addresses both roles within her. Ruth Hartland is the head of a renowned trauma therapy facility. She is confident and professionally respected. However, her personal life is in shambles: More than a year ago, her 17-year-old son Tom went missing, and she is tormented by self-blame: Did she prioritize her career over her family? Was she not a good mother? When a new patient comes to her who bears a striking resemblance to Tom, she knows exactly what to do as a therapist. But as a desperate mother, she makes a completely different decision. With fatal consequences.
