On May 25, the Irish will vote in a referendum that could liberalize the country's restrictive abortion laws. It's an emotive campaign - no less for the country's large diaspora. Ireland has no postal or proxy vote, so those eligible to vote have to travel home to do so. Irish pro-abortion rights activists are doing all they can to get voters to return. Jennifer Collins reports from Berlin.
