In overturning Roe v. Wade, which had legalized abortion in the U.S. since 1973, the Supreme Court has taken a step backwards. This step backwards is symptomatic of a confusing polarization. Disturbed by this situation, director and feminist Lea Clermont-Dion asks: how will this legal precedent impact us here in Canada? She offers an exploration of the rise of anti-abortion groups in Quebec, and across the country, but also presents a rare dive into the feminist and pro-choice fightback that is organizing. After her hard-hitting film Je vous salue salope : la misogynie au temps du numerique (2022), the filmmaker continues her quest for justice and truth.
