    Honestly, I loved this doc! It was a great way of delivering such a sensible subject from both directors. Never has this issue been treated properly and this documentary finally exposed the - behind the scenes - of abortion. I thank both directors for choosing to stand up and speak for all the women (and doctors) out there who are constantly facing discrimination and psychological violence! MUST WATCH!

    Beautifully crafted. I would be honored to work next to any of these doctors. Watch for women's rights, end of life and ethical issues.

    An excellent film that showcases the compassion and courage of these four physicians. The women who seek their services are wrestling with an extremely difficult decision, and are fortunate to have loving providers to assist them.

    It's tragic that a sympathetic view to people who murder unborn children are seen as "heros" because they allegedly "risk their lives" doing so. What a waste of time.
  • Beautiful and truthful

    Everyone should watch this. People on both sides of the issue. It gives a real feel into the compassion of the doctors, how the procedure is preformed, and the real struggles women go through to have late term abortions. People don’t do this because they want to, they do this because they feel they have to. And if these doctors didn’t provide safe abortions for them, they would do it on their own in a horrific way. I purchased this movie and hope to have my friends and family watch it.
  • Disappointing!

    I was hoping to learn something from this documentary but didn’t. It’s a waste of my money.

    I had heard about this documentary a few months ago and noticed it was finally available. Abortion has been a hot topic of debate even before the ruling of Roe v. Wade. Late-term abortions are perhaps one of the few things that many pro-life and pro-choice opponents come close to having similar viewpoints on. The film makers did an excellent job of showing all aspects of late-term abortions, in particular, the moral and ethical dilemmas experienced by both providers and patients alike. In the end, it is not difficult to understand how this is a necessary procedure for a small percentage of pregnant people. I recommend this for those on both sides of the debate and encourage those opposed to abortion to watch it with an open mind and heart. Abortion is a choice that is not made lightly and we must trust pregnant people and their ability to make difficult choices that are fraught with moral and ethical dilemmas. These courageous doctors and patients deserve our support and respect.

    I couldn't see where they were really covering both sides of the issues, sure there has been damage on both sides.

    My proffesor took us to see this movie during our ob rotation and it definitely showed the “other side” of abortion, anyone who is against abortion should definitely see this documentary and it will explain why these doctors do what they do
  • So thoughtful and nuanced

    A new perspective on an exhaustively emotional debate. The film succeeds at being thoughtful, nuanced, and gentle. A really great documentary about something people probably don’t know as much as they think they know about.
