I knew about this movie when it came out (I got to sit in the premiere when the director had a question and answer session after the screening). Therefore, I feel responsible for helping more to spread the word on this documentary that appears to have less attention than it should, given the time of day people spend merely on debating the politics of health care involved.
This movie puts us in the seat of patients who are learning the hard way what it takes to be their own advocates. One may not have all the answers, however it seems evident these clinics are doing a disservice to the feminine spirit of woman under the guise of benefiting medicine and science. How can our society act like these eggs are valuable as a commodity to allow for their extraction on the one hand and while denying the right to acceptance when it comes to fertilized eggs on the other?
The procedure is done using instruments without sensitivity and much is left to the deftness of the clinician. Let me be fair and warn the sperm donation practices too because they also sterilize an act and sensation which is meant to be saved for its occurrence in connection with a loving spouse. It is better to be poor and not have the resemblances of sex if the alternative leads to a further collapse in the values affronted by the sexual revolution.
I am writing this review because it is now at the end of the week for Natural Family Planning Awareness. It has been awhile since I first saw this documentary, but whether or not you agree with the moral assessment I give, it warrants serious consideration from those who are seeking out novel methods to conceive with and people should take into account the ecological impact.
