To hospitals, childbirth means big money. But in their desperate race to make a profit, are doctors really putting the interests of infants and their mothers first? Now, with a little help from producers Betsy Chasse and Straw Weisman, Buonauguiro documents his own wife's experiences before, during, and after childbirth in hopes of illuminating the neglectful exploitation of pregnancy and birth that countless couples must contend with during one of the most crucial phases of their own lives, and the lives of their unborn children. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
