About the Film

Zurawski v Texas is an urgent and compelling documentary that sheds light on the inhumane and devastating consequences of Texas’s restrictive abortion laws. As described by the Jury Prize for Best Feature at the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival, “this film follows the legal battles and intimate personal stories of several women denied essential healthcare, powerfully highlighting the vital importance of protecting women’s autonomy, reproductive rights, and bodily integrity.”
