S1. Ep 1: 1000 Dolls

Episode 13 of 22

A series of strange, unexpected, human stories from the history of the culture wars.

It's the early 1970s. Frank Schaeffer is an American kid living in the Swiss Alps – the son of an influential Christian art historian - who daydreams of one day making Hollywood films. But for that he needs a show-reel to prove himself. The ripples of Frank's creative ambitions will help trigger one of America's most violent culture wars around the legalization of abortion and Roe vs Wade.

Written and presented by Jon Ronson
