A BREECH IN THE SYSTEM by Karin Ecker.
A woman wants to give birth to her breech baby in a hospital. They say she has to have a caesarean section. This is an inspiring documentary about her to attempt to birth naturally against all odds.
Prepare to be moved by this intelligent and poignant film about one woman's birth journey with a breech pregnancy and breech birth.
Experience the fear, anticipation, support and birth outcomes when you are clear about your boundaries and in touch with your inner voice in pregnancy. The role that care givers have in a woman's birth is highlighted beautifully, ensuring this is must see film for all midwives, doulas and especially obstetricians.
The production is excellent making the film a joy to watch. I can best describe this film as a vital and stunning contribution for all humankind allowing us all to witness with absolute clarity the entry to our world of one human soul in a unique way.
The producer Karin Ecker, who is also the featured mother birthing her breech baby is also available for lecture presentations.
Mrs Ecker´s presentation will include the screening of her film A BREECH IN THE SYSTEM (www.abreechinthesystem.com), and a discussion afterwards sharing her understanding of the political dynamic that influences the natural birth outcome within the system as well as her research of how litigation has been affecting birth choices in australia and overseas as well as different models of care in birth facilities nationally and internationally.
Also the discussion can be around how cultural conditioning can influence the birthing process for a woman. i.e the different believes about pain, the support she receives and what role she plays in her own birth.
These topics are suitable for students of medical studies, social studies, anthropological studies and also students of law.
Lectures can be tailored to suit your audience if required.
