Across America, the maternal mortality crisis is exploding - fueled by states enacting abortion bans and restricting care. Perilous Passage: Birth in America follows Christy Turlington Burns as she explores the human cost and the fight for change. Since the 2022 Supreme Court decision that gutted reproductive rights, 19 states have outlawed or sharply limited abortion care, deepening an already deadly maternal health crisis. Now, more women are dying giving birth in the U.S. than in any other developed nation. In this urgent and unflinching documentary, Christy Turlington Burns meets the people living - and fighting - on the front lines: a Wisconsin OBGYN who balances the exam room with the campaign trail, a Black midwife in Tennessee building a lifeline for mothers unsupported by the system, a Louisiana father shattered by the loss of his wife during childbirth, and a pregnant woman forced across state lines to get the care her state denies her. With intimate access and powerful storytelling, Perilous Passage: Birth in America isn't just a film - it's a wake-up call, shining a light on the crisis and the extraordinary resilience of those refusing to accept it as the status quo.

These sites should be avoided as they are often not authorized to distribute the content and may also infect your device with malware or viruses. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is, so stick to Reddits that discuss legitimate, legal sources only.
