Orgasmic Birth

 

I have posted about this before, but I want to highlight it again because the project is nearing completion. Debra Pascali-Bonaro (my doula trainer!) and a group of really awesome people have put together a film called Orgasmic Birth. The film is being released in January 2008, and hopefully will start to make its way to US film festivals. About Orgasmic Birth:

Orgasmic Birth is a documentary that examines the sexual and intimate nature of birth and the powerful role it plays in women’s lives when they are permitted to experience it.

You can see Debra talking about the film here.

    I don’t know if the filmmakers can get permission, if they’d think it’s appropriate to work an old image into their film or promotion, but something about the film, the photo above, and the film title reminded me of an old 60s folk-rock album:

    The Mamas and the Papas Deliver

    Anyway, I think you’ll enjoy the album cover, and see the resemblance.
