“Give It a Shot,” a documentary following the decades-long push to bring a reversible male contraceptive to market, will open theatrically across North America this September.

Coast to Coast Films, in association with Sandbox Films and ITVS, will release the film. A trailer has been unveiled.

Directed and produced by Vaishali Sinha (“Made in India,” “Ask the Sexpert”), the documentary centers on 83-year-old Indian researcher Dr. Sujoy Guha and a U.S.-based development team as they work toward launching the first reversible male contraceptive since the modern condom was invented 200 years ago. The Guttmacher Institute counts just three contraceptive methods currently available to men – condoms, vasectomy and withdrawal – versus roughly five times as many options for women.
