- This is a documentary about the provocative American cartoonist John Callahan. At the age of 21 Callahan got involved in a serious car-accident and was paralyzed from the waist down. Drawing cartoons has become his way to express himself although he can hardly use his hands. With a raw style, pen clutched between his hands, he draws cynical and ruthless observations of mankind. His work is praised and criticised. Callahan has provoked protest-marches and receives many angry letters. He was fired at The Miami Herald journal after drawing a cartoon in honour of Martin Luther King Jr. Day; a little boy with a wet spot on his pyjamas saying: "Mommie I had a dream". Callahan does not understand why people get so upset about his work but he admits at having been an angry young man for a long time, trying to point the hypocrisy of people. Callahan also writes ànd sings songs. He likes to play the ukulele, something that is very hard for him to do. Of course the songs are no lullabies, lines like "Life is like a box of hand-grenades" and "Something always keeps me from committing suicide in the fall" reflect his way of thinking.
- When a woman gets pregnant unintentionally, she is faced with the choice: Keep the baby or have an abortion? Onverwacht follows a woman in this predicament. The film is shot in the weeks between the moment she discovers her pregnancy and the deadline to make a decision. The audience is drawn into the intimate and painful process of self-examination and doubt she has to go through. The woman remains anonymous throughout the documentary, her face is never visible. A meeting with her best friend who has had a miscarriage, her parents' reaction and conversations with the family doctor, therapist and abortion doctor show that a solution is not simple, especially since the father does not want the baby. Whatever she decides, it will have enormous physical and emotional consequences. Since the woman stays anonymous, the viewer can ask her- or himself at the end of the documentary: What would I have done?
