Les Bureaux de Dieu is a French-Belgian movie directed by Claire Simon which reveals, without taboo, a poignant reflection on issues that surround family planning and abortion. 

Meet Djamila would like to take the pill because she and her boyfriend are now in a serious relationship, but her mother is against the whole idea. Meet scared Clémence. Meet Adeline who wants to keep her baby. Meet Margot and Maria Angela who are pregnant but are unsure who the father might be… All entrust their hopes, prayers, dreams in a family planning space where they learn, listen and understand the nature of female identity and sexual freedom…. 

In God's offices they laugh, cry, are overwhelmed, dance and, especially, come there, incognito, to share their deepest secrets…
