      abstract = {In an era when women could not get legal abortions there  were only a handful of courageous doctors who risked  imprisonment, loss of license, and their future in order to  provide safe abortions to women. The filmmaker's father,  Dr. Curtis Boyd, was one such individual. A one-time  Pentecostal preacher, Dr. Boyd was influenced by the social  changes of the Sixties. As a small town physician he  performed thousands of abortions to desperate women.  Ironically, it was only after abortion became legal in 1973  that Dr. Boyd became subject to the most severe harassment.  Despite this, he continues to provide abortion services  because he believes abortion is not only a fundamental  women's rights issue, but that it is a human rights issue  as well. As he puts it, "by providing abortion services we  are in fact helping to make the world a better place".},
