Film Description



Provides an in-depth review of abortion in the US today.  Areas the film addresses includes the crises of access and affordability, the atmosphere of harassment and violence for doctors and clinic workers, the impact of growing state and local legislative restrictions for women seeking care, the complexity of religious issues, and the provider crisis. 
The World Health Organization estimates that unsafe abortions cause more than 75,000 deaths annually, worldwide.  Socio-economic and legal constraints, even in nations where abortion is technically legal and available, including the US, prevent millions of women from obtaining adequate medical care.
