Description

An exploration of Investigation Discovery’s (ID) programming strategy ‘Docbuster,’ which is redefining what an event level documentary can be: informative, impactful, and urgent, yet rooted in empathy and shaped by the voices most affected. Hear from the minds behind such breakout hits like Quiet on Set, House of Hammer, The Fall of Diddy, The Cult Behind the Killer, the Lost Women franchise, and many more. Find out how ID develops and executes a forward-thinking approach to true crime storytelling – and shine a spotlight on the women who are redefining the true crime genre.
