SALLY (working title) is edited by Kate Hackett and executive produced by Liz Garbus, Jon Bardin, and Kate Barry for Story Syndicate and Carolyn Bernstein for National Geographic. Exclusive interviews with close friends and colleagues of Sally Ride include her life partner Tam O&#8217;Shaughnessy (also an executive producer), Billie Jean King, and astronauts Anna Lee Fisher and Kathy Sullivan, to highlight a few.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1797184784\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>When Sally Ride became the first American woman to blast off into space, she forever changed the course of science, exploration, and women&#8217;s empowerment. But as she flew into orbit, Ride faced the challenges of institutional critics and the prejudice of an American public who were skeptical that a woman could do the job of an astronaut. Undeterred, Ride dove headfirst into that struggle, propelled by a determination few could match.<\/p>\n<p>Woven together through decades of astonishing, never-before-seen archival footage, filmed both on the ground and in space, SALLY (working title) recounts the authentic, behind-the-scenes story of Sally Ride and chronicles the beautiful 27-year romance with life partner Tam O&#8217;Shaughnessy, which was kept secret from the public until the day of Ride&#8217;s death. The film presents the intimate, emotional truth of her journey as a pioneer who fought to expand the limits of what America imagined was possible. For the first time, the film allows us to see the real Ride, struggling with the limits and sacrifices true heroism demands.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cristina Costantini is the perfect filmmaker to tell Sally Ride&#8217;s story. Her passion for science and film and dedication to women&#8217;s equality bring depth and ethos to the project. We are thrilled to collaborate with her, Story Syndicate and Muck Media once again on this momentous project,&#8221; said Carolyn Bernstein, executive vice president of Scripted Content and Documentary Films for National Geographic. &#8220;Sally Ride was a bold pioneer whose legacy continues to inspire new generations of astronauts, scientists and dreamers. This documentary will be a tribute to her accomplishments and a testament to the importance of diversity and inclusion in scientific exploration.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sally was a powerful symbol to me as a kid &#8211; so much so that I painted a life-sized mural of her on the exterior of my elementary school in third grade. I thought, &#8216;If Sally, a woman, can go to space, what can&#8217;t I do?'&#8221; said director Costantini.<\/p><div id=\"morty-2288475780\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Our society was not ready to celebrate Sally Ride for all of who she was when she broke the stratospheric glass ceiling back in 1983.
