About

"A one-sided reckoning with a decades-old scandal"

This four-part documentary revisits the allegations of sexual abuse made against Woody Allen by his daughter Dylan Farrow, drawing on home videos, court records, and new interviews with the Farrow family and investigators. It builds a detailed, one-sided case against Allen, weaving personal archives with legal analysis. The tone is somber and deliberate, more prosecutorial than balanced, and it leans hard on emotional testimony. It moves briskly for a documentary but demands patience with heavy subject matter. What carries it is the raw, unfiltered access to the Farrow family's perspective and never-before-seen footage.

Watch it for

the unprecedented access to Dylan Farrow's own home videos and firsthand testimony.

Maybe skip if

you want a balanced, both-sides investigation rather than an advocacy documentary.
