DUCKWORTHY

genres:

An inspiring tale of Senator Tammy Duckworth, shaped by her heritage and fueled by her unwavering spirit and humor. A candid straight-to-camera interview that weaves her experience as a biracial American kid from Southeast Asia, poverty as a teenager in Hawai''i, a near death experience as a Helicopter pilot in the Iraq war, and the lightness of motherhood that has shaped her advocacy and legislative efforts as a Senator of Illinois.
