All3Media International has secured sales rights to Roast Beef Productions’ feature-length documentary Who is Ghislaine Maxwell?

Per the agreement, All3Media International will manage the global distribution rights (excluding the U.K.) to the 90-minute film, which is slated to debut on Channel 4 in the U.K. later this year. The new documentary special will ask who and what British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell really is in the context of the trial for her role in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Who is Ghislaine Maxwell? is directed by Erica Gornall (Saudi Women’s Driving School).

Rachel Job, senior VP of non-scripted at All3Media International, commented: “We are thrilled to partner with Roast Beef Productions on this brand-new project. Their expertise and authority in nonfiction guarantee this will be the ultimate, timely telling of Ghislaine Maxwell’s story. The Roast Beef team has already delivered some of the most gripping films in the non-fiction genre in recent years, and this latest production, with its eminent lineup of creatives behind the camera, promises further compelling, excellent television. It will deliver the truth behind the verdict—and will be responsive and reactive to the trial process.”

Job added: “Combining top-class investigative journalism, never-before-heard testimonies and brilliant storytelling, Who is Ghislaine Maxwell? will take viewers through each stage of her journey, featuring many exclusive contributions from those closest to her. Offering an incisive and unflinching look at a controversial figure at the center of one of the world’s biggest scandals, we know this will be must-see viewing for audiences around the globe.”

Mike Lerner, producer at Roast Beef Productions, said: “Rarely does a woman face the heinous charges to which Ghislaine Maxwell must answer in a New York court this summer. She was the golden child of the notorious fraudster Robert Maxwell, an Oxford graduate, a socialite across two continents who became the associate of the notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and then founded a charity to save the oceans. A woman of many faces who has lived several different lives. But who is Ghislaine Maxwell really, and what does her story tell us about high society in London and New York. We are thrilled to be working with All3Media International for the first time to bring this utterly compelling true story to the global market.”
