When Bridget (Kelly O’Sullivan) finds out she’s pregnant in “Saint Frances,” she doesn’t spend much time wondering how she will handle the situation. She takes the test, it comes back positive, and she immediately knows what she’s going to do. “I’m for sure getting rid of it,” she tells her quasi-boyfriend, in this exclusive clip for Women and Hollywood.

“We can talk about other options,” Jace (Max Lipchitz) offers. He barely has time to get the words out before Bridget responds with a “No. Thanks.” She’s sure an abortion is the right decision.

“Saint Frances” sees Bridget dealing with the unplanned pregnancy and subsequent abortion as she begins a new job nannying a precocious six-year-old, Frances (Ramona Edith-Williams). As she gets to know Frances and her mothers (Charin Alvarez and Lily Mojekwu), Bridget begins to think critically about what she wants from her own life.

The film won the Audience Award for narrative feature and a special jury prize for breakthrough voice at SXSW 2019. O’Sullivan, who is also “Saint Frances'” screenwriter, picked up honors at Traverse City Film Fest and Tallgrass International Film Fest for the script.

“Women and girls are encouraged, outrightly or subliminally, to keep abortion, postpartum depression, periods, or any other innate part of womanhood that’s considered messy, ‘gross,’ or shameful to ourselves,” O’Sullivan wrote in an open letter. “‘Saint Frances’ endeavors to normalize and destigmatize those parts of womanhood that we’re encouraged not to talk about. I wanted not only to talk about these subjects, but to show them onscreen unapologetically, realistically.”

O’Sullivan previously wrote, directed, exec produced, and starred in the short “Ladies’ Night” alongside Carly Olson. Her other screen credits include “Olympia” and “Battleground.”

“Saint Frances” opens in NY tomorrow, February 28, and in LA March 6. It will roll out to additional cities in the coming weeks. Head over to the film’s website for more screening info.
