| Summary |
A documentary about a woman, who is determined to give birth to her breech baby naturally, even though hospital authorities insisted she would have to have a Cesarean. This is an inspiring story about her attempt, against all odds, to give birth naturally within the system. “Prepare to be moved by this intelligent and poignant film about one womans birth journey with a breech pregnancy and breech birth. Experience the fear, anticipation, support and birth outcomes when you are clear about your boundaries and in touch with your inner voice in pregnancy. The role that caregivers have in a womans birth is highlighted beautifully, ensuring this is a must see film for all midwifes, doulas and especially obstetricians. This production is excellent, making the film a joy to watch. I can best describe this film as a vital and stunning contribution for all humankind, allowing us all to witness with absolute clarity the entry to our world of one human soul in a unique way." -Jannine Barron, Natures Child. Karin Eckers focus on social issues has brought her international acclaim for her filmmaking and photographic art. From filming European children exploring environmental issues in the Bahamas to physically handicapped people scuba diving in the Egyptian Sea, she now brigs her lens to the issue of childbirth choices in Australia. She intends to use this film as a tool to inspire women to realize their choices. |
