Defying the state legislature that outlawed abortion, the Catholic Church that condemned it, and the Chicago Mob that was profiting from it, the members of “Jane” risked their personal and professional lives to support women with unwanted pregnancies. In the pre-Roe v. Wade era — a time when abortion was a crime in most states and even circulating information about abortion was a felony in Illinois — the Janes provided low-cost and free abortions to an estimated 11,000 women.

[HBO Max] The directors focus on the women to tell their own story, giving voice to the protagonists. There is a carefree character in the statements, a story in which a certain tonality of spy story prevails when they describe their strategies. But the reality appears in the abortions practiced by mafia organizations, the cards with the data of the patients, and the annulment of an ending that want to be optimistic.
