Nine Months Apart

After five years of marriage and years of failed attempts, Orm is finally pregnant through IVF. But just as she and Lingling begin dreaming about their baby, Lingling is deployed overseas with the Army. Separated by distance, fear, missed milestones, video calls, letters, and late-night voice messages, they fight to hold onto each other through the hardest months of their marriage. As Orm faces pregnancy alone and Lingling struggles to survive long enough to come home, both women cling to one promise: their family will not begin without both of them.
