‘The desktop video essay “getty abortions” examines how German and Austrian media illustrate the topic of abortion, browsing through stock photo databases, teen magazines and personal documents of a real abortion experience. It jumps from the early 2000s to the late 19th century, ‘eeks out feminist knowledge and chats with fictional characters. But one question remains: Why does no one look into the camera?’ (https://franziskabisch.net/film/)
