Drawing on an archive of letters written in the 1960s, the film reconstructs the forgotten journeys of American women to towns on the US-Mexico border to access abortion care in clandestine clinics. Through a mix of logistical details and intimate reflections on reproductive agency, the stories told evoke the current realities of access to reproductive healthcare in America today.
