The Ruby Sunrise

This surprising and perceptive comedy tells the story of an industrious teenage runaway with a knack for dismantling and reassembling every electronic device she can get her hands on. Determined to realize her dream of inventing something like no one’s ever seen–television–Ruby is convinced that her vision will change the way people look at the world. Starting on an Indiana farm in 1927 and jumping to a McCarthy-era New York TV studio, The Ruby Sunrise charts the course of a phenomenon – from early idealism to anti-communist censorship and commercial compromises.
