Hi,
That's a good idea to get a video for your friends to see. I'm aware of some from La Leche League and vary quite a bit in price. They mostly cover the basics of breastfeeding, how to get latched on well. I don't know of any that cover the current breastfeeding laws and doubt if any exist since it's expensive to put out a video and the laws change so frequently, it would be hard to keep a video current in that regard. But here's a website with the current breastfeeding laws. It's updated through Oct. 2005.
http://www.ncsl.org/programs/health/breast50.htm
Here are the descriptions of the DVDs.
Mother's Milk: A Breastfeeding Guide Guide to the first weeks of breastfeeding, provides tips for preventing common challenges, including changes in breasts, engorgement, latch-on techniques and employment. $45
Getting Started with Breastfeeding Learn the basics of breastfeeding, getting baby to breast, positioning and how to tell if baby is getting enough milk. $18.95
The Benefits of Breastfeeding featuring Dr. Ruth Lawrence, combines scientific facts with personal thoughts and feelings of parents. Discusses the benefits of breastfeeding for the mother; common questions, as well as the keys to breastfeeding success. Only in VHS $59
Others I know of:
The Real Deal on Breastfeeding about $21

Nature's Way: Video Guide to Breastfeeding about $18
