Storyline

Alex, Irina and Marcel are three teenagers aged 16 years. Alex and Irina are a couple. Irina is pregnant and Marcel friend of the two, he takes Irina to have an abortion at the clinic where his sister works as a nurse. Before entering the doctor's office, while they waited for Alex, Irina confesses to Marcel that Alex is not the one that got pregnant. After Irina enters the doctor's office, Alex and Marcel talk in front of the cabinet. Trying to avoid the tension of the moment, the discussion focuses on preparing an exam subject. Marcel tells to Alex a story that is part of the possible topics for the exam. Without mentioning his title (it's short story "The Wall" by Jean Paul Sartre), Marcel tells him briefly the content. Alex interpreted in a simplistic way how absurd that its main character escapes death sentence, arguing with his cowardice. The way Marcel receives the interpretations overlaps tension he lives: Do not have the courage to tell his friend that Irina cheated on him. When the discussion between the two increases in intensity, Irina hurried out of the office and tell them that she no longer make abortion. The two are surprised by the news and they're arguing, after which the three leaves.The end reveals why Irina gave up abortion and reveals a new dimension to the story. (Dan Mihai Radu)
