'Australia 2040. No child lives in poverty and every child is safe. But at what cost?
'19-year-old Monica never wanted a baby but the laws require her to give birth twice before she can move on with her life.
'Now that her first son, Oscar, has arrived she's not so sure she wants to hand him over to be raised by professional parents: the Maters and Paters.
'When Monica turns to her birth mother, Alice, for help, she triggers a series of events that force Alice to confront her own dark past. Alice must decide - help her daughter break the law, or persuade her to accept her fate and do what's best for the nation's children?'
