Rose Rosenblatt (left) and Marion Lipschutz (right) met while working on The Human Language, a series on how language works and what it is. Later that year they formed a partnership, co-directing The Abortion Pill, about the history and controversy over the French drug RU486 (PBS 1997). Next came Fatherhood USA, a look at contemporary fatherhood (PBS 1998), and Live Free Or Die (PBS/POV 2000), about a small town abortion provider and the community in which he lives. More recently, they produced The Trenchcoat Gang, about the most successful bank robbers in U.S. history (Court TV 2003). Their company, Cine Qua Non, Inc. is a not-for-profit, with Incite Pictures as its for-profit arm.
