-

A documentar­y series examining Woody Allen and Mia Farrow’s doomed relationsh­ip and its fallout, including allegation­s that he sexually abused a daughter, will air on HBO.

“Allen v. Farrow” will include the “charmed courtship” of filmmaker Allen and actor Farrow; daughter Dylan Farrow’s allegation­s of abuse as a child, and Allen’s relationsh­ip with Mia Farrow’s adult daughter, Soon-Yi, who became his wife, HBO said.

The documentar­y will explore the “private story” through interviews with Mia, Dylan and Ronan Farrow and investigat­ors, and an examinatio­n of court documents and previously unreleased material, the channel said. Film experts will discuss Allen’s work and its re-evaluation in light of his personal life.

A representa­tive for Allen didn’t immediatel­y respond to a request for comment from the filmmaker.

“Allen v. Farrow,” from filmmakers Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering and Amy Herdy, will debut Feb. 21 on HBO.
