Call Me Kate

Synopsis
Katharine ‘Kate’ Hepburn was definitive and distinctive, a force of nature, a once-in-a generation talent, whose progressive and free-spirited nature defined her roles. She was nominated for twelve Academy Awards, winning a record four for Best Actress. Her life and career were defined by stunning highs and crushing personal lows, but she also remained in control of her own story, and her distinctive defiance and enduring talent make her an icon to generations of women today. As she herself said: “I never realised until lately that women were supposed to be the inferior sex.”
This is a documentary for the outcasts, the misfits, the girls and boys uncomfortable in their own skin, who don’t conform with traditional expectations. It is the universal story of how – like Kate – we must be true to ourselves, not the forces that shape us.
