The Repeal Project’s powerful new video is a must watch for all

by

The Repeal Project continues to fight for body autonomy for Irish women, and their latest video campaign is no exception. 

The campaigners have created an incredible new short film that poignantly captures the emotions of the fight to repeal the 8th amendment. 

The video was directed by Laragh McCann.

Shot in black and white, like many of the Repeal Project's campaigns,  the video shows a group of Irish women using dance to express the issue of abortion rights. 

'I hope that the piece, as well as encouraging sisterhood and solidarity as we endure hardships together, also encourages a bridge of understanding from people who are very clear about being pro choice, to those who are in a grey area,' said the director. 

The film comes at a pivotal moment, as today the Citizens’ Assembly will vote on whether or not to amend current legislation surrounding abortion in Ireland. 

Oh, and while we have you; don't forget to have your say in the inaugural SHEmazing Awards this May! It's time to vote, and you can do it right here!
