Sinopse

I’d naively hoped that America would spend the anniversary of Roe v. Wade talking about what the future holds for the tired and embattled women of this country, some of whom have finally won a little political power.

It was shot—absurdly, but maybe appropriately—in front of the Lincoln Memorial.
