A group of college students develop an underground network that helps women get abortions in the pre-Roe vs. Wade Chicago.

Fish Bowl is a dark comedy about Zoe, a woman who experiences a miscarriage at her wedding rehearsal dinner. Its unique tone, which expertly straddles laugh-out-loud comedy and heartbreaking drama, depicts the reality of losing an unwanted pregnancy.

Fish Bowl is a radically pro-choice film that needs to be seen.
