Jennifer Lawrence, Hillary Clinton-Backed ‘Zurawski V Texas,’ Documenting Restrictive Abortion Law Nightmares, To Open In NYC, LA, Texas Before Presidential Election


The Jennifer Lawrence, Hillary Clinton-backed doc 'Zurawski v Texas,' about the impact of restrictive abortion laws, will hit theaters this month.

Another of the key participants in the film, Dr. Austin Dennard, a Texas OB-GYN, “knew her pregnancy had a fatal condition, but the fear of losing her license and facing 99 years in prison meant she couldn’t receive care in her own state. “We felt it was critical to not only theatrically release the film in traditional markets like New York and Los Angeles,” said director Maisie Crow, “but make it available during that window in locations across Texas to ensure Texans understand what these abortion bans mean in practice.” As part of the film team’s impact rollout, free screenings are being held this month in states with abortion access initiatives on the ballot including Phoenix, Arizona; Miami; St. Louis, MO; Charlotte, NC, and Las Vegas.
