Feature documentary for Netflix about the strange but true case of ‘Empire’ actor – Jussie Smollett’s alleged racist homophobic attack in January 2019 and the extraordinary events and case that followed.
A shocking true story of an allegedly fake story that some now say might just be a true story. This compelling documentary, directed by Gagan Rehill, invites the audience to decide for themselves who is telling The Truth About Jussie Smollett?
“An eye-opening new look at the controversial, confusing story of the Empire actor whose violent attack was then disputed provides complicated new evidence…All that can be said for certain is: this case, still a head scratcher, is fit for the times. “All you have to do is change a news channel, and you’re given an alternate reality of what’s going on out your window,” Rehill says. “But in this case you legitimately have two competing narratives existing together.” – The Guardian
