Katharine Hepburn personified the independent modern woman, the adventurous star with a strong personality. The only woman to have ever won four Academy Awards for best actress, she was a star who knew exactly how to direct and market herself within the Hollywood system. Her long career had many ups and downs, from superstar to box-office poison and then back to the top again with the 1940 comeback vehicle The Philadelphia Story. Featuring numerous television interviews and archive footage, this documentary shows Hepburn candidly discussing her life and career.
