A man named Jack who is living with his partner Camilla but one day Anna, a one-night stand from 8 years earlier shows up and informs him that they have a seven-year-old son called Phoenix. Jack begins to spend time with his son but is reluctant to tell Camilla about everything that has been going on. She later finds out when Phoenix has an accident on the playground and is rushed to the hospital where Camilla works. She and Jack fall out.

In the end Anna dies and Phoenix goes to live with Jack, who makes things right with Camilla. The film ends before Camilla has her baby.
