Two women on opposing sides of society’s most divisive issue face off, testing their values. Dr. Jen is determined to provide safe access to abortion as long as the law allows. Melanie stands outside her clinic daily, pleading with all who enter to consider the lives of the unborn. As the two clash, hypocrisies come to light, and we are asked to consider whose rights are being sacrificed.
