An independent producer is currently putting together a half-hour documentary for Al Jeezera domestic television. The production is set for January and February, 2011, and it will be a look at the individuals involved in considering, having and performing Cesareans and the controversy in its wake.
From Betsy Kulman, the producer:
1) I’m looking for a woman with a previous cesarean due again in mid-January who is willing to speak on camera along with her family about:
a) the process/struggle of deciding on VBAC or repeat cesarean —
b) how her family feels about the process
c) challenges of the process
d) is she attending an ICAN/other meeting? We could get round table discussion of pros and cons.
e) her doctor willing to talk on camera about his/her pushing for one or the other and why
She is willing to let us film the birth and follow-up interview; doctor/hospital willing to let us in with camera!
Preferably in Atlanta, Baltimore or D.C.
Please e-mail Betsy directly if you want to participate. betsykulman@hotmail.com. If you would prefer that I pass on your information, feel free to e-mail me at unnecesarean@gmail.com.
