An alarmingly disproportionate number of Black women are failed every year by the U.S. maternal health system. Shamony Gibson and Amber Rose Isaac were vibrant, excited mothers-to-be whose deaths due to childbirth complications were preventable. Now, their partners and families are determined to sound a rallying cry around this chilling yet largely ignored crisis.

The documentary is directed and Produced by Paula Eiselt and Tonya Lewis Lee. It has been executive produced by Dawn Porter, Jenny Raskin, Geralyn White Dreyfous, Patty Quillin, Jennifer and Jonathan Allan Soros, Tegan Acton, Emma Pompetti, Janet Tittiger, Davis Guggenheim and Rahdi Taylor.

This documentary was an official selection of the U.S. Documentary Competition at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. The feature also won the U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award for Impact for Change.
