Unplanned pro-life film seen by nearly 3,000 Canadians
Nearly 3,000 Canadians watched the movie Unplanned in Edmonton at one of Canada's first private screenings. Unplanned tells the life of Abby Johnson , former director of a Planned Parenthood abortion, then a renowned advocate of life. In particular, this film has met the strong resistance of many American distributors and is now facing that of their Canadian counterparts , failing to date in public projection. However, ongoing negotiations with the firm Cineplex could end the blockade, especially since a boycott campaign against the company was launched so that
the film Unplanned can be viewed by the general public. Extract ofGradin Media :
Co-director Cary Solomon says filmmakers are currently negotiating to bring the pro-life project to cinemas in 10 to 20 Canadian cities.
An agreement could be announced as early as next week.
[...]
In addition to a boycott campaign, a recent screening in Edmonton of Unplanned - which filled a 3,000-seat room at the Edmonton Expo Center - played a major role in the beginning of the negotiations.
[...]
Currently, Unplanned can only be shown in Canada through private screenings.
To date, more than 5,000 people have joined the boycott campaign.
Cineplex claims that it did not support the film because it does not have a distributor, but Grasseschi [pro-active life]
doubts that the channel is at the mercy of the distributors.
"A distributor did not take care of it - some do not want to touch it or could not do it - but Cineplex is not helpless in this industry," she says. "As a company that owns 80% of the country's cinemas, they are brilliant business people. They know it's a profitable film, and if there was a strong desire among Cineplex executives, they could probably do it in a phone call. "
Finally, according to Grandin Media , one or two abortionists would leave the abortion industry every day since
the film Unplanned was released in the United States.
