Trying to figure out where they are and where they’re headed, literally and figuratively, with increasingly hilarious results, it’s always an unpredictable day in this deeply comical, and wholly un-gentrified neighbourhood.

JUNE 20 – HBO’s MIND OVER MURDER *Limited Series Premiere*
- The HBO Original six-part documentary series MIND OVER MURDER, directed by Nanfu Wang (In the Same Breath), debuts Monday, June 20 at 10 p.m. ET. The series chronicles the bizarre and psychologically complex story of six individuals who were convicted for the 1985 murder of beloved 68-year-old grandmother, Helen Wilson, in Beatrice, Nebraska. Despite five of the individuals originally confessing to the crime, the “Beatrice Six” as they became known, were exonerated by DNA evidence in 2009, a turn of events that divided the rural town, and incensed the family of Helen Wilson. As the filmmakers track the case from the murder, through investigation, trial, exoneration and two civil suits, shifting perspectives cloud the truth; a stranger-than-fiction tale emerges that raises salient questions about the reliability of confessions, and memory in criminal cases. MIND OVER MURDER follows a weekly release schedule with new episodes dropping Mondays at 10 p.m. ET.
