Abstract:
Each year an estimated 30-55 million of the world's women obtain induced abortions. More than half of these abortions are illegal, and an estimated 84,000 of them result in death. This documentary reviews the history from ancient to modern times of family planning, abortion, and infanticide, including global religious and legal viewpoints. Current thinking and practice are demonstrated by use of personal stories, case studies and interviews filmed in Ireland, Peru, Thailand, Japan, Canada and Colombia. Views on the subject in the United States specifically are not included
Note:
Dialogue in various languages with subtitles in English. - Documentary. - "A Studio D. Production, National Film Board of Canada".
