The Wounds Within: An Endometriosis Story

Directed by Lora Brovold | 51’ | Canada
PERSPECTIVE ALBERTA

 

Affecting at least 1 in 10 women, transgender, and gender diverse people, Endometriosis still requires an average of 6 to 10 years for proper diagnosis. In Lora’s case, obtaining a diagnosis was a 25-year journey that robbed her of her fertility and changed the course of her future.

 

The Wounds Within is the story of Lora’s journey, from the first signs that something was wrong through to receiving proper surgical care. It explores the physical and emotional aftermath of a disease that ravages the body and alters life plans.
