Molly Ivins took on the American political system.  Her blistering words instilled fear in politicians but also endeared her to readers across the country.  She gained much of her following while writing about then Governor George W. Bush, dubbing him "Shrub: the little Bush."

Director Janice Engel, best known for the TV series "Addicted," brings us the rise and failings of Molly in "Raise Hell" and how she broke through in a man's profession.
