Maria comes back to her former life after checking herself out of rehabilitation clinic, where she was treated for panic attacks. To get back her position as lead researcher and convince her family she is fine, she hides her breakdowns that manifest as crazy hallucinations. However, hiding her special condition while also competing for a neuroscience project and love from her family is more difficult than she’d thought.

The film raises the following question – does someone with imperfections deserve to be loved? Perfection is a new religion nowadays. Panic attacks are an expression of internal suffering, which accumulates within a person and suddenly explodes. It’s like a doorbell. The main conflict of the film takes place between Maria and her closest ones. Maria can no longer be just a "handy tool" in someone else’s hands. She wants to be accepted and loved for what she really is – imperfect, and not always sane. In the film, mystique is blended in with reality. Two worlds contrast and compete.
