New Beginnings

Ida and Engen's 13 year-old friendship is damaged when the death of their friend comes between them. Engen, guilt-ridden over Janelle's passing, has become violent. Ida, in her grief, attempts to fill the loss with a one-night stand, which leaves her pregnant. The two lifelong friends are forced to reconnect when they are sent to Africa for six months. Lev Rosen, Ida's irresistible boss at the orphanage where she's assigned to work, has his own connection with Ida, although she doesn't know it yet.
