Passion, resolve and canny campaigning are on full show in this energising doc about the landmark 2018
abortion vote
Two years after the UK’s remainer liberals lost the EU referendum,
Irish campaigners fighting to repeal the constitution’s eighth amendment forbidding abortion showed them how you win this kind of vote: with real passion, real vision and real determination not to take anything for granted. In 2018, Ireland’s pro-choice voters won the
referendum handsomely – 66% on a 64% turnout – an inspiring story told in this spirited documentary by Aideen Kane, Lucy Kennedy and Maeve O’Boyle.
