Missouri is filmmaker Tracy Droz Trago\u2019s home state, which is why she chose the location. I interviewed Reagan, who informed me the film makes the\u00a0case that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2014\/09\/11\/missouri-lawmakers-pass-72-hour-abortion-waiting-period-override-gov-veto.html\">72-hour waiting period<\/a> for women seeking an abortion in Missouri is a challenge to them. Reagan made it clear that the film has a pro-abortion bias\u00a0and\u00a0was &#8220;disappointed to see the angle&#8221; of <em>Abortion: Stories Women Tell<\/em>.\u00a0Reagan was told the film would be balanced and it was sadly not.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey talk a lot about abortion stories,\u201d Reagan told me. They even found a religious clergy that supports abortion, a minister who told one of his congregants God approved of her choosing abortion. Reagan said, \u201cThe real point of the film was to focus on the difficulty of women accessing abortion because of the 72-hour waiting period in Missouri and also to destigmatize abortion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reagan was initially concerned about being a part of the film because she didn\u2019t know what to expect. &#8220;I wasn\u2019t sure how we would be portrayed,\u201d she told me. Sadly, the film didn\u2019t give enough attention to the amazing work pro-lifers like Reagan are doing to help pregnant women on campus. However, in spite of her disappointment with the film\u2019s editing and focus, Reagan said she felt like she had to do this film. \u201cI felt confident in myself,&#8221; she said. She\u00a0knew it would be important for a young pro-life person to be shown in the film\u00a0and\u00a0respected the fact that they were at least reaching out to include other voices and was grateful she was chosen to share her story.<\/p>\n<p>I asked Reagan if she thought the film would be worthwhile for pro-lifers to watch,\u00a0 even though it has an obvious bias. She said, \u201cI think it\u2019s worth watching if you go into it knowing there is a slant. I think it\u2019s important for us to recognize what a woman is feeling in her moment of crisis. Sometimes we don\u2019t think about the woman. That woman is hurting and scared. This is the perfect example for us to see where women are at.&#8221; Reagan also said it is\u00a0important for pro-lifers to see both positive and negative portrayals of those who stand against abortion. Seeing the negative portrayals can help us to become more compassionate as a movement.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_93385\" style=\"width: 484px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-93385\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-93385 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n-700x525.jpg\" alt=\"13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13059566_1580197378976640_1692172687_n.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-93385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reagan (far right) standing on the opposite end of an abortionist from the film<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After the film festival, Reagan flew home and had an <a href=\"http:\/\/studentsforlife.org\/i-walked-the-red-carpet-at-an-abortion-film-premiere-because-i-was-in-the-movie\/\">opportunity<\/a> to sit next to the abortionist featured in the film on their plane ride. The abortionist recognized her and was impressed by the way Reagan handled herself in the film. There were some\u00a0pro-life protesters filmed who yelled at women entering abortion facilities. Reagan responded to women differently and the abortionist took note of that. They had an interesting and civil conversation for the entire two-and-half hour flight. Although they didn\u2019t agree on abortion, only God knows what good can come forth from their conversation. Reagan is keeping the abortionist\u00a0in her prayers and heart.<\/p>\n<p>We live in a world that is full of darkness, but Reagan is a shining light in her generation. Her passion and love exudes through that film and I hope\u00a0everyone who sees it is moved by the compassion and courage of this brave pro-life woman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reagan Nielsen is a passionate, 24-year-old woman who works as the Midwest Regional Coordinator for Students for Life of America.
