Netflix is no stranger to twisted documentaries, but this month it released one of its most twisted yet.
True crime film Tell Them You Love Me joined the streaming giant’s roster, chronicling the controversial events between white ethics professor Anna Stubblefield and nonverbal black man Derrick Johnson, whom she later convicted. for sexual assault in New Jersey.
Throughout the documentary, director Nick August-Perna and executive producer Louis Theroux explore the roles that race, disability and power played within their dynamic and the events that unfolded. The project features interviews with Stubblefield and Johnson, as well as some of their family members with fiercely opposing views on their relationship.
