The film is based on a true story and follows Abby Johnson as she comes face-to-face with the hidden and unhidden horrors of her job at a Planned Parenthood clinic.
This movie was one of the most heartbreaking, horrifying things I have ever watched. However I would completely recommend it to everyone, no matter if you are pro-life, pro-choice, or on the fence. This film dives deep into the truths of abortion and how awful it is, it shows the truths that many people try to ignore or hide. I don't think there was a minute that I was not crying during this movie. There is no way you can watch it and not leave a changed person. It inspired me to become even more involved in the pro-life movement, and I hope that many people from both ends of the spectrum see this film. People need to know what they are actually supporting. The still above (on the left) is one of the most moving scenes in the film. It shows a couple, joined by many others, praying over 2 containers filled with the various parts of aborted babies. If that does not move you, I don't know what will. This film shows the struggles of mothers with unplanned pregnancies, but it encourages that there are other, better solutions that abortion. It is important to educate people about these solutions. The film also shows the side of the Planned Parenthood agency and how the mother's wellbeing is not always the main focus. This film seeks to spread awareness as well as provide women with a sense of hope and show them the alternatives. It portrays the pro-life movement in an honest way, a way that many people do not want it to be seen.. This film is not just meant for one group of people. It really opens your eyes and while it is pretty graphic, there is no other way to depict such horrific actions. I truly hope that you watch this movie at some point in your life.

AuthorHello fellow film lovers! Just a little bit about me: I love movies from the Old Hollywood era, especially musicals. In general, my movie taste is a bit all over the place. I don't really stick to one genre, as I just watch whatever looks interesting! I look forward to broadening my horizons in terms of film and reviewing them to the best of my ability in an honest way. Reading another passion of mine, and I'm frequently told I have an old soul, so expect to see a lot of older films being reviewed. I hope you can find what you need here! Archives
