But Knox maintained her innocence throughout two high-profile — and controversial — murder trials, until her eventual acquittal in 2015.

The film features interviews with Knox, her former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, and Italian prosecutor Giuliano Mignini.
The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann
In 2007, a family vacation in Portugal turned into a nightmare when one of the children disappeared from her bed. Madeleine McCann was last seen asleep just before her parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, went out to a nearby restaurant. By the time they returned, Madeleine was gone. Directed by Emmy nominee Chris Smith (FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened), the eight-part documentary The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann gives a detailed look at Madeleine’s disappearance, including the large-scale search and investigation that ensued, and the intense media scrutiny that propelled the case into international headlines.
