One Girl's experience of unwanted pregnancy
AILBHE is still a child and she wants a future without a child. She reckons she is responsible for having gotten pregnant and can organize it all. But finding her way though London is harder than she thinks. The narrative is driven by the inherent contradictions in AILBHE's character. Having a secret abortion away from home is a daring act of self-expression and self-censorship rolled into one. Our intention is to capture all the nuanced shifts in her perception of the altering world around her.
