Six stories. Six voices that have been silenced for years. ‘Polish Film About Abortion’ is not just a record of experiences – it is a cry that cannot be silenced. Pamela Porwen, known for her uncompromising activist photography, this time gives space to the protagonists, whose lives have become entangled in politics. In a raw, almost intimate form, the film interweaves the narratives of people from different backgrounds – a transgender man, a victim of sexual violence, an activist convicted of helping someone have an abortion – to create a brutally real picture of a reality in which decisions about one’s own body are a luxury available to few. There are no aesthetic filters or glamorous shots here – instead, there are emotions so thick you could cut them with a knife. Silence is no longer an option. This is a film that shocks, teases, opens your eyes, and doesn’t let you forget.
