Each character is faced with difficult situations that seem irreconcilable. The characters in Gestation must choose their paths in the hope of finding the one with least resistance. However, sometimes the supposed easier way leads them to what appears to be insurmountable odds.
As often happens, their choices clash and a battle of wills results with no consideration for compromise. When an unborn life is involved, personal judgments and morality create the foundation from which their actions are justified and even glorified as divine. In Gestation, you will journey through the lives of these characters who suffer nightmarish consequences from their life choices.
