This HBO film presents three interconnected narratives spanning four decades, each exploring reproductive autonomy through distinct historical contexts. The 1952 segment follows a woman navigating societal pressures, while the 1974 storyline examines a pivotal moment in American legal history, and the 1996 narrative reflects contemporary perspectives. Directed by Nancy Savoca with contributions from Cher, the ensemble cast—featuring Demi Moore, Shirley Knight, Catherine Keener, and Cher—delivers nuanced performances that ground the film's examination of a complex social issue in deeply personal human experiences.
