Citizen Ruth
Life, liberty, money and the pursuit of happiness. She's gotta have it.
A sharp satirical comedy that uses one woman's unwanted pregnancy as a lens to skewer both pro-life and pro-choice extremism, media sensationalism, and the dehumanizing machinery of ideological warfare.
"Citizen Ruth" is the story of Ruth Stoops, a woman who nobody even noticed -- until she got pregnant. Now, everyone wants a piece of her. The film is a comedy about one woman caught in the ultimate tug-of-war: a clash of wild, noisy, ridiculous people that rapidly dissolves into a media circus.
