Shownotes
THE DEVIL IS BUSY takes viewers on a daylong journey with Tracii, the determined head of security at a women’s healthcare clinic in Atlanta, Georgia as she works to ensure the safety of women seeking abortions in the face of new restrictions and persistent protests. The film follows the routines of the staff who continue to provide a range of medical services, including preventive screenings, checkups, and reproductive healthcare, in an environment where clinics often face daily threats of danger. Grounded in humanity and empathy, THE DEVIL IS BUSY captures a unique snapshot of reproductive healthcare in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, a shift that has led to abortion bans and significant restrictions in many states. THE DEVIL IS BUSY, directed by Emmy®-winning filmmaker Geeta Gandbhir (HBO’s “Eyes on the Prize,” “Black and Missing”) and Christalyn Hampton, and executive produced by award-winning journalist Soledad O’Brien (HBO’s “Black and Missing”), debuts TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 (9:00-9:30 p.m. ET/PT) on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max.
