There is a new front line in the battle for female bodily autonomy - the breast.
In the wake of breast cancer diagnoses, women across the globe are choosing aesthetic flat closure (AFC) over reconstruction—only to face institutional resistance, medical bias, and insurance denials.
Re/Construction follows the rise of a grassroots, international movement led by survivors-turned-activists who are demanding surgeon training, legislative reform, and cultural change.
Set against the backdrop of shifting political tides and a global reckoning with bodily autonomy, the film interweaves vérité, visual artistry, and history to expose how medicine still defines women’s bodies through a sexist lens—and what it takes to fight back.
