Ruthie and Connie are in many ways typical Jewish New York women. They married in the 1950s, became housewives and mothers and eventually divorced their husbands in the following decades. But in 1974, Ruthie and Connie fell in love with one another, an act of fate that eventually transformed these typical women into elderly gay rights activists. This documentary follows the couple as they struggle with homophobia, depression and the politics of being an openly lesbian couple.

John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture ... remarkable story... Jan 29, 2018 Full Review Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) While this is the sort of film you've seen before, there are specifics at work here that raise the interest level a notch or two above the ordinary Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 30, 2005 Full Review Jon Popick Planet S Magazine Ruthie and Connie are a charismatic pair that would liven up the dullest documentary.
