New four-part HBO documentary, Allen v Farrow, looks at 1992 allegations involving Dylan, the Hollywood director's seven-year-old adopted daughter with his then partner Mia Farrow
Decades of child sexual abuse allegations against Woody Allen will be explored in a new four-part HBO documentary, Allen v Farrow.
In 1992, the famed Hollywood director faced an allegation of sexual abuse involving Dylan, his seven-year-old adopted daughter with his then partner Mia Farrow.
The docuseries follows what happened in the aftermath of the allegation, the subsequent custody trial, Allen’s marriage to Farrow’s daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, and the lasting impact on the family.
Allen v Farrow, from award-winning investigative film-makers Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering and Amy Herdy, features home movies, court records, police evidence and never-before-heard audio tapes, as well as exclusive interviews with Dylan, Farrow and her son Ronan.
The documentary airs on 21 February on HBO, with a UK air date yet to be confirmed.
