"Perhaps the most thoughtful, accessible, and comprehensive documentary ever produced on the subject of breast cancer...at once informative and highly personal."
The New York Amsterdam News
"An education and a revelation, this fascinating documentary is wildly effective as an examination not only of the scientific causes of this disease but also of its human face."
M. Gould
Mill Valley Film Festival
"Stunning, powerful, and mesmerizing..."
Marilyn Moss
The Hollywood Reporter
Seven women, breast cancer patients or survivors, take on the necessary task of asking, "Why?". They travel through the United States, interviewing a wide range of experts and researchers as to the possible causes of the leading killer of American women ages 35-54. Courageous questions and research methods ultimately point to assorted environmental toxins of the post-WWII era: DDT, birth control pills, radiation from x-rays and other sources, electromagnetic fields, and atomic bomb testing.
