"abortion stories, north and south" a movie which looks at abortion around the world, is one such movie. It is produced by the national film board of Canada. The equivalent pro-choice videotape to yours could consist in showing women screaming (not silently this time!) as they are tortured by back-street abortionists (I can be sensationalistic too), but I doubt that anybody would have the heart to actually film such suffering instead of going to the rescue of the victim.
