Birth Story: Ina May Gaskin & the Farm Midwives contains fascinating footage of home births from 1970, when Gaskin’s group of friends formed their Tennessee commune, up to the present day. Gaskin has gained fame and criticism as an advocate of all-natural, at-home midwifery, and this film finally tells her story the way it should be told: not in the context of conventional medical practices, but as the story of someone in singular circumstances, discovering a singular working method.
