Right to Life of Michigan has created a new 30-minute television
documentary, Life Uninvited, which examines the controversial issue of
rape and abortion. The film presents four women telling their own
stories of how they have been personally impacted by rape, incest or
abortion.
Life Uninvited will debut on major networks
throughout the state of Michigan during the weekend of January 23 and
24. The film will play state-wide again on January 31.
Right to
Life of Michigan President Barbara Listing said, "Too often the serious
issue of rape, incest and abortion only gets brought up by candidates in
the middle of election campaigns. This ground-breaking film gives
people a chance to approach this issue for themselves."
Each of
the four women shares a different personal experience. Three of the
women are themselves rape survivors, three were conceived through rape,
one has had an abortion and one has a daughter conceived through rape.
Listing
said, "Most people have not heard any of these perspectives before. We
invite people to tune in with open minds and learn more about these four
remarkable women."
The film was produced by Minus Red and lead
filmmaker Jim Hanon. Hanon is the creative force behind many Right to
Life of Michigan television advertisements. In the past, Jim Hanon has
served as a vice president at a worldwide advertising agency and was the
director of the 2005 movie End of the Spear.
Life Uninvited was inspired by the compassion project television advertisements that Right to Life of Michigan ran throughout the state in 2015.
