Running time: 14 minutes
A warning for those triggered by disturbing images: this filmstrip features potentially alarming images of dead fetuses and dismembered body parts.
Synopsis
This strongly pro-life filmstrip shows the wonders of life, the sanctity of the unborn, and warns of the psychological stresses, stanic influence, and physical dangers of abortion.
Background The COJCOLDS developed this filmstrip with the intent that it be shared with members and secular audiences. It targeted Young Adults, Relief Society sisters, and students in seminaries and institutes. It was even briefly incorporated into the sexual education curriculum in Coleman, Texas
The LDS church lauded the short in several articles in the Deseret News and the Ensign magazine as a wonderful PR tool to educate and to improve the public perception of the church.
When played for Mormons, it was accompanied by an audio-only recording by President Spencer W. Kimball.

Really difficult for me to do this review as a white, older, male. I tried but failed to get a female co-host. But I am going to do my best.
