Joy tells the story in a perfectly paced and engagingly understated way. While the film's cinematography vividly captures 1960s Britain, much of the action takes place in hospitals and laboratories. There are some disturbing scenes depicting invasive medical procedures on women, which are of course unavoidable in a story such as this. However, the filmmakers handle these moments with care, eliminating any unnecessary sensationalism, effectively conveying the physical and psychological toll that reproductive medical trials take on women. The film is available to watch on Afdah Live.
