The Matter of Life is what the pro-life movement needs: an intelligent, eminently reasonable and persuasive look at what is really involved in the matter of abortion.  Featuring activists who break the sterotypes and pro-life leaders who exude compassion and common sense,  it also includes heartwrenching interviews with those who have lived the conflict—women whose pregnancies were traumatic, and an abortionist whose devastating loss after a long career  led to a dramatic change of heart. Director  Tracy Robinson seeks to get past the wall of division in the culture—baby killers vs. women haters—to the questions that need to be asked. If we agree that in America  “We the People” are guaranteed “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” where do the unborn come in? Do they have a right to life? Do we owe them protection?

The Matter of Life has been scheduled for a special engagement in theaters around the country next week, on Monday May 16th, and Tuesday May 17th.  Since the Supreme Court leak and subsequent protests, these events have become targets of the furious pro-abortion mob.  Lisa Wheeler, whose Carmel Communications is promoting the film,  said in a Facebook message:
