O.J.: MADE IN AMERICA

More than 20 years after the media spectacle of the “trial of the century,” O.J. Simpson continues to fascinate the public. In this expansive, ambitious and provocative project, Ezra Edelman revisits not only the murder of Simpson’s ex-wife and its infamous aftermath, but the story of O.J.’s entire life, before and after. Encompassing America’s complicated relationship to race, celebrity, crime and the media, his rags to-riches-to-infamy story becomes, at the same time, a study of the history of race relations in Los Angeles, with ripple effects felt across the country.
