12th and Delaware
(Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, 2010, 90 min, USA, English, Color, DVD)

-- Q&A to follow w/ director Heidi Ewing and Carey Pope (Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice North Carolina)!

The seemingly sleepy intersection of Delaware Ave. and 12th St. in Fort Pierce, Fla. is ground zero for the ferocious abortion rights battle raging in America. On one corner stands an abortion clinic; across the street is the Pregnancy Care Center, a pro-life outpost dedicated to heading off abortion seekers at the pass. 12th and Delaware provides a compelling, fly-on-the-wall view of the ideological trench warfare that takes place daily at this crossroads, where women struggle to deal with unwanted pregnancy. Directed by Oscar® nominees Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady (Jesus Camp), 12th and Delaware puts viewers in the middle of this intractable conflict.
