The group informs women on how to perform self-managed abortions at home or directs them to clinics abroad.<\/p>\n<p>The activists have gathered a huge following on TikTok, where they talk about facilitating 100 abortions a day and shock people with the slogan \u201cAbortion is OK!\u201d This empowers hundreds of thousands of women while angering all conservatives and the government, and has ultimately lead to the complete burnout of one team member and the political prosecution of another, who is threatened with three years in prison.<\/p>\n<p>The documentary closely follows the four main members of the Abortion Dream Team on the frontlines at demonstrations, press conferences and committee meetings, behind the scenes at the office and at home. This includes Justyna Wydrzy\u0144ska, a mother of three who answers the Abortion Without Borders helpline; Natalia Broniarczyk, media contact and main spokesperson; Karolina Wi\u0119ckiewicz, legal activist; and Kinga Jeli\u0144ska, the founder of the biggest organization providing abortions in Poland that is now based in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>The film remains timely. As of February 2024, when the film was completed, the anti-abortion law has not been changed in Poland, despite the victory of a new liberal government. In February 2025, the sentencing of one of the members of the Abortion Dream Team was overturned, and she will have to face a new trial.<\/p>\n<p><em>Abortion Dream Team<\/em> is directed by Karolina Lucyna Domagalska and Monika Kotecka and produced by Paprika Studios Poland and My Way Studios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abortion Dream Team, a documentary from Paprika Studios Poland and My Way Studios, is set to bow in the U.S. on Viaplay on April 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":22795,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[10744,10745,10746,10747,10748,10749,10750,4285],"class_list":["post-22794","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-abortion-dream-team","tag-justyna-wydrzynska","tag-karolina-wieckiewicz","tag-kinga-jelinska","tag-my-way-studios","tag-natalia-broniarczyk","tag-paprika-studios-poland","tag-viaplay","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Abortion Dream Team Doc to Bow in the U.S. - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Abortion Dream Team Doc to Bow in the U.S. - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Abortion Dream Team, a documentary from Paprika Studios Poland and My Way Studios, is set to bow in the U.S. on Viaplay on April 10.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-03-31T15:08:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-03-31T15:08:13+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/03\/Viaplay-AbortionDreamTeam-0325.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/\",\"name\":\"Abortion Dream Team Doc to Bow in the U.S. - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2025-03-31T15:08:10+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-03-31T15:08:13+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/abortion-dream-team-doc-to-bow-in-the-u-s\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Abortion Dream Team Doc to Bow in the U.S.\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
