HM Televisión presents documentary on Jérôme Lejeune

HM Televisión presented a documentary titled "The Strength of Love: Jérôme Lejeune (1926-1994)" on Thursday, October 22. The film marks the centenary of the birth of Lejeune, a French physician and researcher.

The documentary recounts Lejeune's discovery of Trisomy 21 in 1958. It describes how his scientific findings regarding the origins of Down syndrome were later used in debates over abortion laws in France to justify selective abortion. The film follows Lejeune's professional and personal response to these developments and his commitment to defending human life.
