About the movie:

Joyous, sensuous and revolutionary, Orgasmic Birth brings the ultimate
challenge to our cultural myths by inviting viewers to see the
emotional, spiritual, and physical heights attainable through birth.
Witness the passion as birth is revealed as an integral part of
woman’s sexuality and a neglected human right. With commentary by
Christiane Northrup, MD, and midwives Ina May Gaskin, Elizabeth Davis
and other experts in the field . . . and stunning moments of women in
the ecstatic release of childbirth.

Orgasmic Birth has had an international impact on the film festival
circuit and was screened this year at the prestigious Rio de Janeiro
International Film Festival; The Baltimore Women’s Film Festival; Usti
Film Festival in the Czech Republic; Festival Caminhos in Portugal;
and ‘Official Selection’ The European Independent Film Festival (ÉCU)
2009 in Paris. Orgasmic Birth also won the Audience Choice Award at
the 2008 Motherbaby International Film Festival in Bermuda.

Five years in the making, Filmmaker Debra Pascali-Bonaro reveals a
revolutionary approach to birth that is statistically safer for both
mother and child than the birthing and delivery methods that are
standard in many parts of the world today. The viewer becomes an
intimate part of the birth stories of 11 women during this 85 minute
documentary.

The evocative score for the film was created by John McDowell,
composer of the score for the Oscar-winning documentary Born Into
Brothels, with additional composition by Sabina Sciubba of the group
Brazilian Girls.
