Filmmaker Judith Helfand turns the camera on herself to document her battle with cancer caused by DES, a drug prescribed to her mother during pregnancy. Refuse to confine the tears, rage laughter and hope to dinner table conversations, Helfand invites us to witness her personal journey from radical hysterectomy patient to vocal opponent to toxic exposure. From her suburban home to halls of Congress, the intensely private becomes widely public, and an American family is transformed and strengthened. A co-presentation of ITVS.
