Birthright

About This Movie

Birthright is one of those documentaries that draws you in with its earnest approach to a serious subject. It captures the Family Planning Association's work in a time before the pill changed everything about contraception. The pacing is methodical, reflective of the period's social attitudes, and the filmmaking feels raw and honest, almost a window into a changing society. The atmosphere is both educational and somewhat somber, reminding us of the challenges faced in accessing reproductive health. It stands out, not just for its content, but for how it mirrors the evolving conversations around fertility and women's rights.

Birthright has a certain rarity that makes it appealing to collectors, given its specific historical context. It's not widely available in modern formats, so owning a copy on DVD or VHS can be quite special. The documentary’s significance in the conversation around reproductive rights adds to its value for collectors who appreciate films that document societal shifts.
