This movie documents the incredible life of Dr. Ruth Westheimer, a Holocaust survivor and America's favorite sex therapist. Nearing her 90th Birthday, this movie revisits Ruth's life as she is sent to an orphanage in Switzerland at 10 years old at the beginning of WWII through her incredible career as a popular sex therapist, appearing on all of the late night TV shows and couseling numerous people on various sexual situations.

This is a great documentary. Dr. Ruth lived an extraordinary life. She faced more tragedy than most, losing her parents in the Holocaust and her 3rd husband after 45 years together. And, she almost lost her life after becoming a sniper in the Israeli Army. But, Dr. Ruth always remained positive. She furthered her education and tried to help people deal with the one thing that no one else wanted to talk about - SEX. At almost 90 years old, Ruth is still as active as someone half her age, writing books and appearing on Good Morning America. She is still quick witted and totally with it! If you were ever a fan of Dr. Ruth or just want to know more about her, then this is the film for you. Go see it!!
