I Am Ruth, the drama movie starring Kate Winslet, is the talk of the town after earning not one, but two BAFTA TV awards – so, here’s how to watch it and if it’s available on streaming.
The 2023 BAFTA TV awards saw stars descend upon London on Sunday evening for a celebration of the past year in British TV.
And it turned out to be a resounding success for I Am Ruth, the latest entry to the I Am… series, which is a compilation of standalone dramas centered around the stories of women and their perspectives on life.
Avatar 2 star Kate Winslet gave a stunning performance, as did her real-life daughter Mia Threapleton, who appears in the British film as her on-screen daughter too. Following its BAFTAs success, you might be wondering how to watch I Am Ruth, and if it’s streaming in the US.
How to watch I Am Ruth – is it streaming?
Yes, I Am Ruth is available to stream on the Channel 4 website after dropping on December 8, 2022.
