Film Description
Young women in more than 30 countries around the world have a better chance of preventing unwanted pregnancy than do American women. Why? Because politicians in these countries have made emergency contraception (EC) available without a prescription for women in need without regard to age! This puppet parable depicts the FDA's legal contradiction in not allowing the use of EC as a safe, over-the-counter form of protection.
