Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard
One year after the lawsuit with disproportionate media coverage, Netflix returns to the case of Johnny Depp against Amber Heard with a point of view based precisely on this rise in social networks and traditional media.
In this three-episode miniseries, the documentary returns to this extraordinary trial without, however, questioning the two protagonists of the case, nor their lawyers. The director, Emma Cooper, did want a balanced content by taking a certain height and analyzing the events from the point of view of the spectators and not the actors. Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard It is available on the platform since August 16.
