This is a portrait of lawyer Margie Pitts Hames who argued the case of Doe vs Bolton, which was decided at the same time as Roe vs Wade. Doe was a class action case about not having access to abortion, that was argued at the same time.
This film needs to be a feature. There is too much information for a 17 minute film. Things feel slightly unfocused and we are left wanting to know more.
Despite this there is an interesting look at an unheralded but important story
