Netflix has announced that its forthcoming Casting JonBenet is set to receive its European premiere at next month’s Berlin Film Festival.
The documentary will be released on the streaming platform this coming April.
Casting JonBenet is a sly and stylized exploration of the world’s most sensational child-murder case, the still unsolved death of six-year-old American beauty queen, JonBenet Ramsey. After years of media speculation and public fascination, audiences are presented with a documentary hybrid examining the macabre legacy of this tiny starlet. Over 15 months, the filmmakers traveled to the Ramseys’ Colorado hometown to elicit responses, reflections and even performances from the local community. In doing so, Casting JonBenet examines how this crime and its resulting mythologies have shaped the attitudes and behavior of successive generations of parents and children.
Here’s a new clip for the forthcoming original, which debuted earlier this week.
