Storyline

With a single abortion clinic remaining in the state of Mississippi, the city of Jackson has become ground zero in the nation's battle over reproductive health-care. Jackson is an intimate portrait of the interwoven lives of three women in this town. Wrought with the racial and religious undertones of the Deep South, the lives of two women are deeply affected by the director of the local pro-life crisis pregnancy center and the movement she represents.

'Jackson' touches heavily on the deep class divide that occupies both sides of this debate, and much like Alexander Payne's 1996 satire 'Citizen Ruth,' a pregnant single mother is wedged in between.

Jackson is a potent op-ed whenever it drops the overt talking points and just tells its story.
