Full-time mom Marie has everything under control and always gives a thousand percent: raising the children, running the household, scheduling appointments with her husband - not really a problem for the woman in her late thirties if it weren't for her excessive demands on herself. Advertising executive Nela, on the other hand, is trying to reconcile the needs of her son Leo with her own career restart, while her husband wants a second child. And single woman Tine is trying to reclaim her life as a young twenty-something, despite having a young daughter. Something is slowly brewing on the playground, the battlefield of the mothers, where they try to outdo each other with home-baked spelt cookies. How far will the mothers go to hold on to their own idea of happiness? Or does life have surprising solutions in store...?
