The Jewish Community Center of San Francisco (JCCSF) announced today that Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi, the filmmakers behind the smash hit Netflix docu-series Making a Murderer, will appear in conversation to talk about their ground-breaking work at Kanbar Hall on Sunday, February 28 at 7 p.m. Tickets for The Making of Making a Murderer with Filmmakers Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi go on sale to the general public Friday, February 5 starting at $42 and will be available at www.jccsf.org or by calling 415.292.1233.
Writers-Producers-Directors Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos spent a decade researching thousands of primary source materials and shooting and editing over 1,000 hours of footage to craft Making a Murderer, Netflix's 10-part documentary series about Steven Avery, a Wisconsin DNA exoneree who two years after his release, while pursuing a $36 million wrongful conviction lawsuit, is charged with the murder of photographer Teresa Halbach. The directors, graduate film students in 2005 when Steven Avery's case splashed across national headlines, borrowed a camera and hit the road for Manitowoc County, Wisconsin to examine the evolution of the American criminal justice system from Avery's wrongful conviction through the investigation and prosecution of this new case. Ten years later, their series was complete. Their appearance at the JCCSF will give audiences an inside look at the documentary making process, the craft of their filmmaking, and the themes woven throughout their fascinating story.
