Telling authentic stories through a female lens.
Ruthless Films is driven by the power of telling the stories of real people––deeply rooted in social justice and using humor to foster change.
"Given the current political climate, 'No One Asked You' is a timely and immediately relevant documentary that is required viewing."
– Film Threat
“Humorous and urgent.”
– Indie Wire
"[No One Asked You] takes abortion out of the abstract ideological shout-fest and humanizes the issue."
– Vanity Fair
A CULT-CLASSIC PHENOMENON
WILDWOOD, NJ
“Wildwood, NJ is the heavy metal parking lot of New Jersey amusement parks––a funny, often shocking piece of nonfiction regionalism, a vivid portrait of one of the country's most lively and lurid subcultures, and a loving ode to the lyrical promise and reckless excess of the classic wild, hot American summer."
– The Washington Post

Filmmaker
RUTH LEITMAN
All of my work begins with an image, a moment caught in time, from the first time I processed black & white film many platforms ago. The stills have turned to moving image and sound, because I wanted to hear the stories of the people I was photographing. I tell stories in feature length for the big screen, or in minutes or less for the web and all screens in between. The tools and venues change, but never the inspiration.
