After Tiller

Synopsis
Since the assassination of Dr. George Tiller in Kansas in May 2009, there are only four American doctors left who openly provide third-trerm abortions. AFTER TILLER paints a complex, compassionate portrait of these physicians -Dr. LeRoy Carhart, Dr. Warren Hern, Dr. Susan Robinson and Dr. Shelley Sella - who have become the new number-one targets of the anti-abortion movement, yet continue to risk their lives every day to do work which they believe is profoundly important for their patients’ lives.
