These Are My Hours is a full-length documentary featuring a birth much like Amanda’s pieces of art. It includes no commentary from anyone but the birthing woman and the camera never leaves her side. The mother is not disturbed. The baby is not taken from her. It gives viewers a new perspective on birth. The creators ( 2 midwives) have taught classes to college students on the contrast of this film and birth in popular media via a guest lecture entitled “Birth and the Media”
