Macomb (MI) BirthNetwork National presents:

"Laboring Under an Illusion: Mass Media Childbirth vs. The Real Thing"
a documentary by Vicki Elson, MA, CCE

"In over 100 video clips, anthropologist Vicki Elson explores media-generated myths about childbirth. As a childbirth educator for 25 years, she observes daily how our culture affects reality. The result is hilarious, engaging and enlightenings. To understand what it's really like to have a baby, we have to debunk the silly and scary images served up by the profit-driven media. In reality, birth is hard work, sometimes simple, sometimes complicated, but always miraculous and unforgettable."
