Without Shame, Without Stigma, 
Without Fear
After Roe v. Wade was overturned in June 2022, Ithaca, NY designated itself an abortion sanctuary city, protecting residents and staff from out-of-state legal actions.
Without Shame, Without Stigma, Without Fear follows Sue Perlgut, an Ithaca-based filmmaker, storyteller, and reproductive justice advocate, as she navigates the post-Roe landscape. Centering Perlgut’s personal experience and activism, the documentary explores Ithaca’s sanctuary policies and the ongoing fight for destigmatization, resilience, and access.
