David F @dfulmer Oct 30, 2026 A short, moving documentary that focuses on a Georgia abortion clinic in the wake of the 2022 Supreme Court decision which stripped women of the constitutional right to an abortion. The interviews with staff and profile of the work that goes on gives a glimpse into the realities of this situation and a portrait of the nuts and bolts tasks which, despite the political climate and protestors just outside the front door, goes on to this day.

Eye C @ECinc Jul 26, 2026 An interesting documentary about a hard subject and a hard job as itself but with extremist hypocritical people makes a lot harder. See more

Vixo S @vixo_six Jun 11, 2026 The Devil Is Busy is a simple but effective documentary about judgment, empathy and the quiet resilience required to work inside a hostile public environment. Its strength comes from the everyday nature of what it observes. Rather than turning conflict into spectacle, the film shows how moral certainty can become cruelty when people feel entitled to impose their beliefs on others. The documentary is most moving when it focuses on those who continue their work with calm and emotional discipline. Their professionalism becomes a form of resistance, not through grand gestures, but through patience, care and the refusal to answer hostility with the same language. Its approach is direct and not especially complex, but that clarity gives it weight. The film reminds us that some realities demand respect before judgment, and that living alongside others begins with the humility to let them live. See more

Christian M @chriss17eu Jun 2, 2026 Should men have an opinion on abortion? It’s an interesting and effective documentary in what it tries to explore, although it also leaves me with the feeling of wasted potential. Even though it’s short, some parts still felt longer than they should have. Still, I appreciate its intention. It made me question abortion not only from a legal perspective, but also from an ethical and moral one. The documentary doesn’t trap itself into a single point of view; instead, both ideologies and the different ways of thinking around the subject are presented. It encourages me to reflect for myself, even if there are people who believe men shouldn’t have a say in abortion. The problem is that it could have gone much deeper. I wanted more human development, more conflict, and stronger emotional consequences. The foundation is powerful, but the execution feels somewhat superficial. See more

Drew M. @Stonehands211 Mar 15, 2026 The best documentary I’ve seen on abortion and it’s from the perspective of the head of security, which should tell you a lot! See more

matthias S @Thescreenasvor Mar 9, 2026 Only watching this because it’s on my Oscars watchlist, but damn this short doc is sharp. Tight editing, clear stakes, and it trusts the women telling their stories. Honestly wish this was a full docu series. Angry, urgent, and powerful filmmaking. Hope it wins the Oscar. Easy four stars. 🎬⭐ See more
