Event
'12th & Delaware' and Q&A with filmmaker [Doc Watchers Presents]
One night screening of the documentary '12th & Delaware', an intimate look at abortion from all sides presented by Harlem's Doc Watchers screening club.
'12th & Delaware'
Rachel Grady & Heidi Ewing, 2009, 80 min.
On an unassuming corner in Fort Pierce, Florida, it's easy to miss the insidious war that's raging. But on each side of 12th and Delaware, soldiers stand locked in a passionate battle. On one side of the street sits an abortion clinic. On the other, a pro-life outfit often mistaken for the clinic it seeks to shut down.
As the pro-life volunteers paint a terrifying portrait of abortion to their clients, across the street, the staff members at the clinic fear for their doctors' lives and fiercely protect the right of their clients to choose. Shot in the year when abortion provider Dr. George Tiller was murdered in his church, the film makes these fears palpable. Meanwhile, women in need become pawns in a vicious ideological war with no end in sight.
AFTER THE SCREENING: One of the filmmakers will be present for Q&A
Doc Watchers is a Harlem, community-based documentary film screening club and series curated by Hellura Lyle.
