My Little One / Mein kleines Kind "You must decide!", the specialist in prenatal diagnostics tells me. |

Ultrasound examination
during the 21st week of pregnancy -
diagnosis: „complex defect syndrome, suspected chromosome anomaly. Because of the many defects in different organ systems the prognosis must be described as very poor.“ „You must decide!“ the specialist in prenatal diagnostics tells me. „In such a case immediate abortion is the usual solution.“ This autobiographical documentary is devoted to life, birth and taking leave of my little son, Martin Tim, to personal questions and developments arising from being confronted with the tragic diagnosis and the resulting demands requiring me to decide about duration of life and about the conditions of death of one of my four children.“ Katja Baumgarten (midwife and filmmaker) |
