โฆ Synopsis
Labor and delivery nurse Penelope is an expert at her job but a complete mess when it comes to her personal life. After her boyfriend dumps her in favor of saving his marriage, Penelope discovers she's pregnant. Now Penelope must face motherhood, her greatest fear, as a single parent or consider the alternative.
Jesenia, a first-generation American, made her mark as a model then quit the business in favor of a nine-to-five and wedded bliss. After three years of fertility treatments and pressure from her family, she feels that trying to become a mother is a full-time job. But when her past mistakes threaten her chances, Nia will have to confront her youthful choices and over-involved family's opinions on bloodlines if she wants to become a mother.
If choosing a homebirth and nursing a toddler don't make Lotus unconventional, growing up in a commune and choosing a polyamorous marriage certainly do. After her grandfather's unexpected death and the inheritance of his Victorian home, Lotus just wants to run her business, take care of her family, and live in her version of normal. That peace is threatened by her husband's former lover, the end of his sobriety, and a new love interest, all of which will turn her world upside down.
Words We Cannot Say is told through three diverse voices as the women navigate friendship, motherhood, pregnancy, and loss. What happens when women tell the truth about themselves, their desires, and the sacrifices they're willing--or unwilling--to make?
