Jackie Kennedy & Lee Radziwill: The Complicated Story of Two Sisters

Jacqueline Kennedy and Lee Radziwill were born into the same privileged world — but history remembered the two sisters very differently. Jackie became First Lady of the United States, a global style icon, and one of the most recognizable women of the twentieth century. Lee moved through many of the same worlds of wealth, politics, fashion, art, and European society, while spending much of her life trying to create an identity that belonged entirely to her. This documentary explores the remarkable and complicated life of Lee Radziwill — from her childhood with Jackie and their youthful travels through Europe, to the Kennedy White House, Aristotle Onassis, her attempt at acting, her work in design and fashion, Grey Gardens, and the personal losses that shaped the final decades of her life. Their relationship was never simply one of rivalry. They competed. They protected each other. They hurt each other. And during some of the darkest moments of their lives, they repeatedly returned to one another. Lee had beauty, money, a European title, famous friends, and access to some of the most extraordinary people of her era. But one question followed her for decades: How do you become known as yourself when your sister has become an icon? This is the story of Jackie Kennedy and Lee Radziwill — two sisters, two very different lives, and a relationship shaped by family, fame, ambition, loss, and history. #LeeRadziwill #JackieKennedy #KennedyFamily #AmericanHistory #Documentary #AristotleOnassis
