Voices: Our Stories Before Roe v. Wade

Voices: Our Stories Before Roe v. Wade gathers the firsthand testimonies of women who came of age before 1973, when safe, legal abortion was not guaranteed. Filmed with a chorus of older women speaking these accounts aloud, the documentary preserves a generation’s lived memory of what the pre-Roe era actually meant. Director Randy Field frames the stories as both oral history and warning. An award-winning short documentary about women’s health, memory, and the fragility of hard-won rights.
