Plot

Observationally shot, Women’s Work follows birth workers in Utah, where midwifery and out-of-hospital births are experiencing a budding revival. Melissa, a seasoned midwife, uses her expertise to train other women as midwives and doulas—often attending births with her protégé, Allison, who recently earned her Direct Entry Midwife Certificate. Amidst balancing the demands of family life, an exhausting career, and the weight of grief, the pair foster a supportive community of women, guiding expectant mothers toward holistic and unique birth experiences.
