[testimonial_slide author=”Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I, Archbishop of Chicago”]The documentary 40 presents the pro-life movement in the United States through the eyes, the words, and the experiences of its members. It offers an eye-opening review of history to those new to the pro-life cause, and reminds us all of how far we have come and of the challenges we still face in standing up for life.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Sheila Liaugminas, Host of ‘A Closer Look’ on Relevant Radio”]Unlike any other engagement of the abortion debate, the 40 film gives voice to both sides fairly and lets women speak for themselves through experience on the reasons for their firm convictions about abortion. What we know now that we didn’t at the time of Roe is the impact of abortion on women, men, families and society. The 40 film captures it all in an exquisite encounter with human dignity. This is one for the ages, a rare and timeless contribution to this time in history. It should be seen by all people of all persuasions, everyone, everywhere, without exception. This was long overdue, but now we’re talking.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=” Lila Rose, President of Live Action”]40 is a heart-felt depiction of some of the great struggles and victories of our movement. The stories shared through this film will be sure to inspire you.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Rebecca Kiessling, Conceived in rape and Director of Save the 1″]40 is destined to become the premiere film for educating youth on abortion.[/testimonial_slide]

[testimonial_slide author=”Jeanne Monahan, President of March for Life Education and Defense Fund”]Building a culture of life, at its core, is about creating an environment where no woman, in her right mind, would ever choose abortion. The 40 documentary will be a tremendous aid in reaching this goal because it show abortions for what it is in a way that is not exaggerated or overly sensational. The documentary contains many personal interviews of people previously involved with abortion (clinic workers, women who chose abortion) who are now ardently working to build a culture of life. 40 reveals in a compelling and authentic way that abortion is irrational, illogical and unreasonable, that it is not good for anyone involved, and that it is the human rights issue of today.[/testimonial_slide]

[testimonial_slide author=”Ryan Bomberger, Co-Founder The Radiance Foundation”]40 is a powerful reflection of the most racially, ethnically, and generationally diverse human rights movement the world has ever seen. While Big Abortion crushes Purpose over 3,000 times a day, people who fight for the dignity of all human life pour their lives into saving beautiful Possibility. As an adoptee and adoptive father, it is a joy to shatter the myth of the “unwanted” child—we’re all wanted by someone. 40 makes that crystal clear.[/testimonial_slide]

Foster, President – Feminists for Life of America”]The 40 film beautifully reveals the spectrum in the pro-life movement, our hope for the future in every child, and the courage of student activists who give meaning to our message that “Women Deserve Better than Abortion” through resources and support. Morales makes it clear: Joy is our business.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Kristine Kruszelnicki, Founder of Pro-Life Humanists”]As a pro-life atheist I’m so glad this film was made! At last a documentary that highlights well-reasoned and secular arguments against abortion! 40 showcases former abortionists, post-abortive women, single mothers, individuals conceived through rape, crisis pregnancy workers, and pro-life leaders of many stripes, and it is a film worthy of both the skeptical pro-choice viewer and the seasoned pro-life advocate.[/testimonial_slide]

[testimonial_slide author=”Margie Manczko Breen, Director at Respect Life Office Archdiocese of Chicago”]It is my hope that every Catholic diocese across this nation uses the 40 film as a call to action![/testimonial_slide]

[testimonial_slide author=”David Bereit, National Director of 40 Days for Life”]America has spent 40 years wandering in the wilderness following the unjust Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that imposed abortion on all 50 states. But today, the tide is turning, and our nation is on the verge of becoming a promised land, where the unalienable right to life is once again protected for every member of our human family. The groundbreaking film, 40, chronicles this sweeping cultural transformation, providing great hope through expert interviews, cutting-edge science, profound insights and shocking revelations. Every person of faith and conscience needs to watch this powerful film immediately … and then take action. Hundreds of thousands of lives depend upon it.[/testimonial_slide]

[testimonial_slide author=”Lavinia Spirito and Mary Lou Nemecek, co-hosts “Real Living” on WMJR 1380AM/94.9FM, Real Life Radio.”]The documentary 40 is a riveting and eye opening hour of facts, personal stories, and views from both side of the Reproductive Rights fence. Viewing this film leads to the conclusion that abortion is the preeminent human and civil rights issue of our time. Beautifully shot and eloquently produced, it is a must see for all people, young and old.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Yvonne Florczak-Seeman, Post-abortive mother and Founder of Love From Above”]After watching the 40 film, it was confirmed in my spirit that I will see the end of abortion. This movie will be the vehicle that God will use to start a new beginning of a new way on how we view life and the unborn child in its mother’s womb. The 40 film gives a wonderful and tender view on the truth from those that have been hurt by abortion both male and female. It also show the beauty of adoption and why that is the best choice for woman and child![/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Fr. Joel Rippinger, OSB Marmion Academy”]I found the film to be a superb educational tool for highlighting the principal moral arguments and debate on the moral question of abortion in the United States, forty years after Roe v. Wade. The film is particularly adept at giving a compassionate and penetrating insight into the lives of the many people who live with the consequences of legalized abortion.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Michael Stark, Co-Creator of the Truth & Life Dramatized Audio Bible”]The 40 film is a comprehensive, informative, eye-opener on the true consequences abortion has on EVERYONE involved! I am adopted, and if abortion were legal in 1964, I am doubtful that I would be writing this today. The women and men who agonize daily of the grievous decision they made at one point in their lives. This film touches all the bases, and is a home run, when it comes to telling the WHOLE story from all sides. (From the service providers, pro- abortionists, patients, relatives, councilors, pro-lifers, children born out of rape, to the wonderful people who risk arrest and derision for their belief that everyone deserves a chance of God’s gift of a happy life on earth.) This is a “Game Changer” and will change history![/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Movieguide, The Family Guide To Movie Reviews”]40 is a really good, highly informative, and extremely useful documentary presenting the arguments and realities favoring the pro-life position on the issue of abortion.

[testimonial_slide author=”Alan Napleton, President Catholic Marketing Network”]This outstanding documentary cuts across generational lines in presenting the pro-life message to people of all ages. 40 presents a compelling and inspirational approach to the argument that all life is sacred and is an excellent resource in creating a culture of life. I strongly recommend it as part of any pro-life effort.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Laura Alexandria, Director of Operations, Grand Rapids Right to Life”]Through spiritual and secular reasoning, the documentary film 40 constructs a solid case for a culture of life. 40 convincingly illustrates and logically argues that legalized abortion-on-demand is the most important civil rights issue of our time.[/testimonial_slide]
[testimonial_slide author=”Jill Stanek, National pro-life activist and blogger”]40 perfectly captures the spirit, love, and determination of the pro-life movement. Interviewed are several of our great thinkers and activists, eloquently answering the tough questions. The movement’s youthful vitality was also on full display. 40 is a must for every pro-life library and would be very persuasive viewing for those not persuaded.[/testimonial_slide]
