BreakingPoint
The Phenomenon „hysterical strength“ is a display of extreme strength by humans, beyond what is believed to be normal, usually occurring when people are in life and death situations.
We witness a mother giving birth to her child. Rather than seeing things on a realistic level, we follow things happening on a more metaphorical side.
The focus of the action is the challenge of birth, which presents itself as an extreme situation in which it becomes literally a matter of life and death.
