On suspecting she is pregnant, Autumn goes to a local clinic and has it confirmed. Like many such places in the US the clinic is a thinly veiled front for the anti-abortion lobby and they try to deter her from considering this. Even if she persisted it would require consent from her parents.
Going into a nosedive, Autumn's distress is noted at work by her cousin Skylar (Talia Ryder) who pilfers some cash from the cash register so they can travel to another state where the law on abortion is different.
Made suddenly even more timely than at release this is almost a drama documentary about how shit it is to be young, skint and unwantedly pregnant in many US states.
It doesn't make strong political points directly, just leads you through Autumn's experience and bar a short section is a far gentler watch than something more preachy could have been. I think this ultimately makes it much more powerful.
A recurring theme is people pretending to be a friend when really they want to manipulate or use you.
The two leads are on screen almost continuously having to pretend they're OK and getting by in a strange place with no money. It's a very naturalistic portrait of resilience and friendship.
If things in the US go as expected somebody will be lining up to make a star studded polemic on this topic, but in the meantime we've got this excellent piece from Eliza Hittman and it is very unlikely to be bettered.
Highly recommended 9/10 because it's so understated.
