Coras valg bliver skæbnesvangert, ikke bare for hende selv, men for alle involverede. Over tre årtier, oprulles tre versioner af en families liv. De vidt forgrenede konsekvenser, som sygelig vold og kontrol får for alle de involverede, skildres gennem tre skæbnesvangre navnevalg med tre mulige udgange i en rystende og hjerteskærende historie om meningsløs ondskab, men også om ukueligt livsmod, kærlighed og overlevelseskraft.

In the wake of a catastrophic storm, Cora sets off with her nine-year-old daughter, Maia, to register her son's birth. Her husband, Gordon, a local doctor, respected in the community but a terrifying and controlling presence at home, intends for her to name the infant after him. But when the registrar asks what she'd like to call the child, Cora hesitates...

It is 1987 and in the aftermath of a great storm, Cora sets out with her nine-year-old daughter to register the birth of her son. Her husband has ordered her to follow a long-standing family tradition and call the child after him but when faced with the decision, Cora hesitates. Should her child share his name with generations of fearful men, or should he be given a chance to break the mould? Her choice in this moment will shape the course of their lives. Seven years later, he is Gordon, raised under his father's cruel influence, the apple of his eye.
