Menopause with heart, soul and laughter in a documentary on the process of becoming an older woman in contemporary America. This upbeat program weaves together interviews with 40 women from across the cultural landscape, including physicians and practitioners of non-traditional medicine. The women are frank and gentle as their discussions range from menopausal symptoms and treatments to the broader issues of what it means to be a woman in "the second half of life." Fun to watch. Featuring Dr. Sadja Greenwood, author of Menopause Naturally.
