DESCRIPTION:
Ripped is a raw and intimate documentary about resilience, strength, and reinvention.
After the end of a 38-year marriage and the loss of her mother, Natalie, 59, rebuilds her life through bodybuilding - transforming grief into power as she prepares to step on stage for her first professional competition.
Directed by her son, filmmaker Nicco DeRosa, Ripped is both a powerful portrait of self-discovery and a love letter to the courage it takes to start over - at any age.
