In an exclusive for this year’s Spectrum Now Festival, the co-creators of the controversial true crime Netflix series, Making A Murderer, will appear for a talk in Sydney.

Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos will be joining Festival Ambassador Charlie Pickering in conversation about the story of Steven Avery, who was convicted and later found innocent of a brutal assault. His release inspired major criminal justice reform legislation, and he filed a lawsuit that threatened to expose corruption in local law enforcement and award him millions of dollars. But in the midst of his civil case, he found himself the prime suspect in a grisly new crime.

The hour-long event, Making A Murderer: In Conversation With Charlie Pickering, will explore everything from the inspiration for the documentary to its eventual airing on Netflix. Audiences will also be invited to participate in a Q&A with Ricciardi and Demos.

Spectrum Now Festival runs Tuesday March 1 to Wednesday March 16, and Making a Murderer: In Conversation with Charlie Pickering takes place Thursday March 10 at The Star Event Centre.
