In the days before legal abortions, Gerri Santoro was desperate to terminate her pregnancy, so much so it led her to an illegal abortion. Immortalized by a grisly photograph showing her dead on a motel floor after a botched procedure, she became an icon for those battling for the right to choose. Filmmaker Jane Gillooly interviews Santoro's family and friends for an intimate look into the life of a woman whose tragedy helped galvanize a movement.
