Miss or Mrs? (English Subtitle)

No rating set

Miss. Mrs.? is the third documentary in the At Stake documentary series. In Jakarta, women have easy access to glossy magazines, designer labels-or the latest cosmetics. But finding a non-judgmental ob/gyn is not easy. This film follows the quest of single and unmarried women in getting the right treatment for their reproductive health. Most get unfriendly gestures from the hospital nurses and doctors. When an unmarried woman wants to find the right contraception, she gets disapproval from nurses and doctors and is lectured on morality instead. The film questions the importance of health versus moral judgment.
