Robin is pregnant but doesn't want to be a mother. Katerina and Gaia are single but want a child. Kiki suffers from an incurable disease and wants her life to end with dignity. The procedure they hope to get access to – abortion, IVF and euthanasia – is available and legal in neighboring countries but not theirs. Therefore, they resort to so-called “medical tourism”. By meeting with those who defend the rights to bodily autonomy and many of their opponents, Stray Bodies takes you on a road trip through Europe, where life and death lurk around every corner.
