Synopsis


ETHEL, a feature length documentary about the remarkable life of Ethel Kennedy, is a revealing portrait told by those who know her best: her family. Directed by her Emmy-Award winning daughter, Rory Kennedy, the film is a deeply personal look inside a political dynasty. By weaving the personal family story with our collective American experience in the 1960s, it brings us behind the scenes of so many pivotal events that shaped our lives and world history.
