‘RUTH: Justice Ginsburg in Her Own Words’ Preview

Starz has acquired the exclusive broadcast rights to Ruth: Justice Ginsburg In Her Own Words, a documentary that “chronicles Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s historic ascent to the Supreme Court, revealing both the public and private sides of the resilient, tenacious, and unassuming woman who became best known as the country’s preeminent defender of gender equality and human rights,” according to the Starz press release.

It continues:

Ruth: Justice Ginsburg In Her Own Words tells the remarkable story of how Ruth Bader Ginsburg – who, at the outset of her career, was deemed unhireable on the basis of her gender despite graduating top of her class from both Harvard and Columbia Law Schools – went on to become the second woman ever appointed to serve as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.

The film uses Ginsburg’s own words and actions to reveal, in exquisite detail, the full breadth of her life and career – from her work as a trailblazing litigator for the ACLU’s Women’s Rights Project, to her groundbreaking work as an appellate judge, to her appointment to serve as a justice on America’s highest court, where she was eventually anointed by her admirers “The Notorious RBG” – a cultural icon and social media firebrand.

Using archival footage and interviews, as well as evocative animations and illustrations, director Freida Lee Mock deftly dramatizes the confluence of factors – personal, psychological, social and political – that shaped Ginsburg’s worldview and influenced the trajectory of her accomplished career.

“The film examines how U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg – also known as the Notorious RBG to her many admirers – became a cultural and social media icon while devoting her career to defending women’s rights,” said C. Brett Marottoli, Head of Program Acquisitions for Starz, in a statement. “Starz has an ongoing commitment to films by, about and for women and we’re thrilled to kick off Women’s History Month with this inspiring documentary honoring the legacy of RBG as told through her own words.”

“I’m excited for Starz audiences to discover how Justice Ginsburg impacted their everyday lives, both men and women, as a trailblazer for gender equality,” said director Freida Lee Mock.

Ruth: Justice Ginsburg In Her Own Words premieres Monday, March 1 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Starz.
