The return of long-running TV show about a group of nurse midwives tops the DVD releases for the week of June 17.

"Call the Midwife: Season Fourteen": The BBC drama, airing on PBS in the States, ushers in the 1970s for its practitioners at the Nonnatus House convent in working-class London.

"Over the years — it’s now 1970 in Poplar, and the Beatles have just broken up — the show has depicted hundreds of births, covered every imaginable obstetric complication and taught many of us a few basic truths for home delivery," writes Seattle Times arts critic Moira Macdonald. "But it’s also, in its gentle way, touched upon numerous other social and cultural topics: immigration, poverty, racism, disability, religion, birth defects, abortion, workers’ rights — and, in every episode, the vast range of love."

NEW ON DVD JUNE 17

"The Assessment": In a not-so-distant future, where resources are scarce and tightly controlled, a couple are one of the few allowed to take a mysterious assessment for the right to have a child, which entails seven nightmarishly grueling days of challenges in this sci-fi thriller.
