Plot


Ask for Jane is based on the historic true story of the underground abortion network in Chicago between 1969 and 1973. The Jane Collective helped over 11,000 women obtain illegal abortions before Roe v. Wade was passed to allow legal abortions in the United States and many members of the collective were arrested. Ask for Jane is the first ever narrative feature film about the Jane Collective.[2][3]



Cast


Judith Arcana, a writer, activist, and real-life member of the Jane Collective is a consulting producer on the film, in addition to making a cameo appearance.[4][5]
