Synopsis

A housewife and mother experiences a life-threatening pregnancy that no doctor will allow her to terminate. After finding herself out of options, with little time to lose, she discovers a network of women who facilitate safe abortions for those in need–no questions asked.

Our take

At a time when women’s reproductive rights are under threat, Carol screenwriter Phyllis Nagy celebrates the solidarity of grassroots activism. Starring Elizabeth Banks & Sigourney Weaver, this rousing drama reveals the fight for abortions in ’60s America via the emancipation of a suburban housewife.
