Motherhood by Choice, Not Chance

Motherhood By Choice, Not Chance is a 2004 documentary film directed by filmmaker, Dorothy Fadiman, which takes key moments from each of the three films from Fadiman's trilogy called, CHOICE: From the Back-Alleys to the Supreme Court & Beyond, by weaving together selected scenes and interviews.

Of making the film, Dorothy Fadiman said, "After six years in production, I realized that the 2.5 hour series was too long to show in most setting, such as meetings or classrooms.

Working with a core member of my production team, Katie Peterson, we put together Motherhood by Choice, a film based on the most powerful and provocative moments from each of the three films.

The result was a half-hour DVD which could easily be shown at conferences, in academic settings and as a highlight of any gathering.

While each of the individual films are still shown, many groups find the 30 minute constellation of clips a perfect length."
