A Mother and Daughter on Abortion A Mother and Daughter on Abortion, Gail Singer, provided by the National Film Board of Canada Gail Singer1987 | 12 min This short film documents an intimate conversation between a mother and her adult daughter on the subject of abortion. They speak candidly about their personal experiences in trying to obtain the procedure, and how, in different decades – before and after the 1969 amendment to the federal law – each got caught up in the system and its rules. A useful discussion-starter on the complex issues relating to abortion.
