Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
It tells the story of a rebellion in the field of medicine as a cohort of physicians faces abortion stigma within their profession and confronts religious control over health care decisions. Their fight takes them into a larger struggle over the heart and soul of American medicine.
This documentary tells the rarely-discussed story of what it means to be an abortion provider today: confronting the threats of violence and facing intensified political threats and efforts to criminalize abortion. Religious control over health care is expanding, including in many pro-choice states. The abortion debate continues to be defined by gruesome images of the anti-abortion movement. In contrast, this film provides a crucial, hopeful point of view: an intimate glimpse into the work lives of these courageous providers and why they fight for reproductive justice.
