Every Mile, Every Mother (Every Mother Counts)

Every Mile, Every Mother is a short film that explores long-distance running as a metaphor for birth. The film follows 12 runners as they run Hood to Coast, a 200-mile relay race in Oregon, also to highlight the barrier distance creates for women to access critical maternity care. The film illustrates the support and teamwork required to ensure a safe and empowering birth experience for mothers, similar to the support and teamwork required for long-distance running.
