Opening with Ethel's memories about her family,[2] the documentary has five days worth of interviews including Ethel's children. The Kennedy family is documented in home videos and pictures.[1]

Rory called her mother's life one of the great untold stories.[3]

The documentary is scored by Miriam Cutler.[4]
