At close range, photographer and father-to-be Kurt Hörbst accompanies his wife during her pregnancy with his large-format camera. The reportage-like images in various locations have an odd effect due to the slowness of the medium and show a quasi-filmic sequence that deals with questions of loneliness, uncertainty and anticipation, restlessness and serenity, curiosity, fear and pride. "5070" resolves itself as the weight of the newborn, in a colorful snapshot at the end of the book.
