At the German Film Awards 2015 it received the third-place prize in the category Best Feature Film and the prize for Best Screenplay. It was also nominated for Best Direction.

Mollie is an accountant living in New York City who has an affair with Albert, a womanizing executive who is married with two children, and becomes pregnant. During her pregnancy, Mollie and Albert keep their indiscretion secret, under the idea she was artificially inseminated, and that Albert plans to leave his wife Beth and their two children to be with her. Mollie and her friend Rona happen to catch Albert fooling around with his interior decorator Melissa and he admits he is planning on living with her after his divorce is finalized. Mollie leaves upset, and immediately goes into labor. She gets into a cab where the driver, James Ubriacco, recklessly speeds through downtown traffic in order to get her to the hospital on time, and he is inadvertently a witness to her son Mikey's birth. Mikey then begins to make commentary on his life and interacts with things through an inner voice which can also communicate with other babies.

La Société pharmaceutique Muller organise une réunion de coaching de ses cadres, afin d'optimiser leurs performances et d'attribuer potentiellement de nouvelles affectations pour certains d'entre eux. Les mises en situation et évaluations se succèdent dans l'ambiance glaciale d'un château, entre petits fours et récitals de chant lyrique menés par le DG de la Société. Les rôles de chacun apparaissent peu à peu et la finalité de cette réunion finit par percer : la vente future de l'entreprise à un grand groupe va entraîner la fusion des activités et des compétences, aboutissant au licenciement de 10 % du personnel-cadre, qui doit être en conséquence précisément défini.
