Ask Dr. Ruth chronicles the incredible life of Dr. Ruth Westheimer, a Holocaust survivor who became America’s most famous sex therapist. With her diminutive frame, thick German accent, and uninhibited approach to sex therapy and education, Dr. Ruth transformed the conversation around sexuality. As she approaches her 90th birthday and shows no signs of slowing down, Dr. Ruth revisits her painful past and unlikely path to a career at the forefront of the sexual revolution.

“The irony at the core of the Dr. Ruth persona is that the maverick who made the bedroom public is herself incredibly private” –  Variety

“Ably and reasonably positions Dr. Ruth Westheimer to be something like the Ruth Bader Ginsburg of sex.” – The Hollywood Reporter
