NEW MOVIE: “SEXUAL REVOLUTION: 50 YEARS SINCE HUMANAE VITAE” This new film highlights the fall-out of the 1960s cultural changes in light of the Catholic Church’s prophetic teaching in the 1968 document Humanae Vitae on marriage, sex, parenthood and birth control. The groundbreaking film also examines the parallel development of the Pill and Natural Family Planning.
The movie was inspired by the true-life story of recording artist and pro-choice feminist Alana Newman, a young woman born by anonymous donor conception. Searching for the truth about her biological father leads to a profound conversion when she discovers Humanae Vitae and Theology of the Body.
The film features interviews with Dr. Janet Smith, Helen Alvaré, Dr. Peter Kreeft, Christopher West, Abby Johnson, Archbishop Charles Chaput, and the doctors who developed modern Natural Family Planning.
Sexual Revolution will be shown free of charge at Cedar Lee theater in Cleveland Heights on Sunday, October 21 at 4 pm – and at Holy Rosary Church on Mayfield Road in Cleveland on Tuesday, October 23 at 7 pm with discussion afterward.
