Five years after the murder of Dr. Tiller, South Wind Women's Center is offering abortion services in the same building where Dr. Tiller worked. Next door is a Right-to-Life clinic called Choices. This documentary looks back at the debate over abortion, which played out in Wichita beginning with the "Summer of Mercy" protests in 1991 and again in 2001. The documentary is accompanied by audio of a live discussion with Julie Burkhart, executive director of South Wind Women's Center and Dr. Scott Stringfield, medical director and board chair for Choices Medical Clinic.
