Citizen Ruth

Here's a rephrased version:

Ruth Stoops (character) is a whirlwind of desperation in Nebraska, driven by her insatiable cravings for substances to numb the ache within. As an addict, she'll stop at nothing to satiate her demons, often sacrificing everything that truly matters - like her four children, taken away from her due to her inability to provide a stable environment. The morning after a night of reckless abandon with her boyfriend, Ruth finds herself unceremoniously tossed out of their flophouse apartment, leaving her feeling vulnerable and exposed.

Seeking solace in the familiar comforts of family, Ruth pays a visit to her brother's home, where she attempts to catch a glimpse of two of her children and beg for financial assistance. But instead of being welcomed with open arms, she's forced to wait at the back door like a stray animal, her sense of shame and inadequacy seeping in.

As her addiction continues to spiral out of control, Ruth finds herself arrested yet again for her reckless substance abuse. The revelation that she's pregnant sends shockwaves through her system, and things take an even more dire turn when she discovers that she's facing felony charges for endangering the life of her unborn child - a stark contrast to her previous arrests, which had all been misdemeanors.

At her arraignment, Ruth is met with the crushing weight of reality as the judge, aware of her troubled history with her other children, offers her a grim choice: terminate the pregnancy or face harsher penalties. Just when she thinks things can't get any bleaker, Ruth is bailed out of jail by Norm and Gail Stoney (characters), a radical Evangelical couple who've taken a keen interest in her story through local news reports.

The couple invites Ruth into their home, attempting to guide her towards a path of redemption. However, on the first night under their care, Ruth's impervious to their convictions, sneaking out with their teenage daughter Cheryl (character) to indulge in her vices - huffing paint and smoking marijuana like there's no tomorrow. As the darkness closes in around her, Ruth is forced to confront the gravity of her situation: can she find a way to break free from the cycle of addiction and chaos, or will her demons forever define her?

As the Stoneys' relentless pressure mounts, Ruth finds herself driven to visit a crisis pregnancy center, where the fervent rhetoric further solidifies her resolve to carry her unborn child to term, despite her own tumultuous circumstances and substance abuse struggles. However, her newfound determination is short-lived, as she is subsequently discovered huffing glue at an anti-abortion protest alongside Gail and Norm, ultimately leading to their decision to evict her from the house. It is amidst this chaos that Ruth meets Diane, a friend of Gail's who doubles as a lesbian abortion-rights activist and undercover operative, determined to aid women like Ruth who she believes are being preyed upon by zealots like the Stoneys.

Upon arriving at Diane's farmhouse sanctuary, Ruth finds solace in the warm embrace of Diane, her partner Rachel, and Harlan, a gruff yet gentle disabled veteran and friend of the couple, who provides security detail for their cause. As tensions between the Stoneys and Diane escalate, the latter's home becomes a hub of activity as anti-abortion activists begin to stake out the property, engaging in fervent prayer and song sessions that are captured by news cameras.

The situation reaches a fever pitch when Blaine Gibbons, a charismatic evangelical leader, arrives on the scene, offering Ruth an additional $15,000 from his ministry to reconsider her abortion plans. As tensions build, Harlan eventually agrees to match this offer if Ruth decides to terminate her pregnancy. The spectacle unfolding at Diane's home becomes a media sensation, with news crews capturing the drama as it unfolds.

However, on the morning of the scheduled abortion procedure, Ruth suffers a devastating miscarriage, leading her to reevaluate her relationships and motivations. As she confronts the reality that Diane is using her as a pawn in their larger mission, much like the Stoneys had done before, Ruth becomes disillusioned with her hosts and begins to keep her miscarriage a secret from them.

Feeling betrayed and seeking a fresh start, Ruth agrees to accompany Diane and Rachel to the abortion clinic, where they are joined by renowned activist Jessica Weiss. As they arrive at the clinic via helicopter, Ruth's mind is elsewhere, consumed by the $15,000 promised by Harlan, which she eventually locates hidden behind the front desk. With newfound determination, Ruth makes a break for it, escaping out of a back window and disappearing into the crowd of protesters as the clinic remains surrounded by rival factions.
