Cécile Togni, who suffers from endometriosis, is a fighter. 9 years & 9 months: that’s how long it took for her and Benjamin to finally realize their desire to have a child.

Over the years, she endured physical and mental suffering, and struggled against the ineffectiveness of misdiagnosis of her infertility. Cécile would fall down and get back up again and again in the face of mounting setbacks, but she would never give up.

When, after 7 years, she was diagnosed with deep endometriosis, a disease that affects 1 in 10 women and is the leading cause of infertility, Cécile decided to fight to inform other women about this invisible disease. Thanks to the awareness-raising campaigns run by the association of which she has become president, “Info-Endométriose”, she is taking action to raise awareness of this disease.

Thelma was finally born on July 27, 2021, after 9 years and 9 months … An unexpected gift, a miracle.

Based on personal archives and testimonials, this intimate and moving story, with an original composition by Malik Djoudi, reveals the difficulties and struggles faced by so many couples today, and the strength needed to have a child.
