In Andrea Bosshard's and Shane Loader's moving, shocking, but occasionally also ironic documentary from New Zealand women also talk about the illegal abortions they had. The two directors interview women from different generations who very candidly talk about the circumstances that forced them to have an illegal abortion, and about the frequently traumatising consequences. These reports are completed with historical photographs and news material, which demonstrate the conflict between the women's reality and the social and moral expectations people have of them.
