Product Overview

The Choice (Don Parham, 2006) is a film about the experience, not the politics, of abortion. It gets behind the often hysterical and over-politicised debate to the real human stories, allowing women and men to talk freely about their own personal experience of abortion. The film is built around six core stories with people of diverse age and background. Five women and one man share their most intimate thoughts about what it was like to be suddenly confronted with an unwanted pregnancy. Their stories reveal the varied and complex circumstances in which people struggle to work through their options and make, what for most, is a difficult choice.
