Explode RU486
2010, 90 minutes
film about the ru486 abortion pill
Pregnant and abandoned, Meena has five days to find a solution to her abortion dilemma. Hope has presented itself, in the form of a student, completely and utterly besotted with her. But can she accept the price? RU-486 The Last Option is a socially charged drama following the choices and consequences the fate of abortion brings to Meena, and the three students she surrounds herself with, all of whom will never find their lives quite the same, all extracting Meena away from herself, all trying to show her the right path. When it’s a battle of wills, will the most fragile of them all, the one most recently created, survive? This topical and exciting new film deals with the controversy surrounding the RU-486 drug - the abortion pill – which recently faced a ruling in the UK Courts. Meena’s journey has never been so relevant: follow her as she faces the biggest gamble of her life, for the life of the one she carries. Not a week goes by without abortion hitting the headlines. We hope this film will add to the debate.
