That's what this film does, it shows that help is available: to file a complaint, through reception in specialized structures, to be listened to... to permit the victims to dare to talk to the police, in a society that would prefer them to remain silent.

This ethnographic documentary follows three young Dutch women in their contraceptive choices. It shows how the use of hormonal birth control for women from a young age on is normalized, institutionalized and encouraged through social norms. Since the pharmaceutical industry only produces birth control methods for women, women are also the ones that have to carry all health risks and sometimes unclear side effects. Making contraception a highly unequal responsibility. The film questions the way in which we have perceived the pill as a feminist trope – and reveals a gap of information between contraception, side effects and women’s lived experience. Hopefully to start a discussion about women’s right to make decisions about their own reproductive bodies and the institutionalized need to control it.
