Between Life and Death - The Terri Shiavo Story

Between Life and Death revisits the story of Terri Schiavo, a decade long saga that captivated the country with the intersection of faith and politics that reverberate to this day. At 26 years old Terri suffered a brain injury that left her in a persistent vegetative state, with no hope of recovery. While Terri's husband wanted to let her die, her parents insisted she be kept alive. What began as a family dispute in local Florida courts escalated into an international news event and seminal right to die legal battle that played out at the highest level of government. Politicians and the religious right used Terri's story  and the power of the "pro life" movement to lay the groundwork for a post-Roe America.
