Docu-series unmasks the mystery behind one of India’s most chilling cases
Netflix’s docu-series, House Of Secrets: The Burari Deaths, explores the mystery behind India’s infamous Burari Case, where 11 members across three generations of a family were found dead under strange circumstances in their house in Delhi. The series was cut at Union Editorial, where the project team comprised Managing Director/ Partner Michael Raimondi, Partner/Editor James Haygood (who served as Executive Producer/Supervising Editor), Katherine LeBlond (Producer), and Zach Kashkett (Editor), along with additional editors M'Daya Meliani and Namrata Rao.
Released Friday, House Of Secrets: The Burari Deaths takes viewers through different stages of the investigation, bringing forth striking and unexpected revelations. Directed by Leena Yadav and Anubhav Chopra, with an original score composed and produced by A R Rahman and Qutub-E-Kripa, the docu-series is set to take viewers into a world with many layers.
Director and Showrunner, House Of Secrets: The Burari Deaths, Leena Yadav shares, “Working on this docu-series has in many ways redefined me as a film-maker. This case is one of a kind that brings to the surface some unfathomable truths of society, truths that need to be confronted and discussed. Exploring the case threw up many pertinent questions and revelations about the times that we live in. I look forward to presenting through this docu-series a case that is much more about ‘us’ (society) than ‘them’ (the family).”

Award-Winning Director Rachel Annette Helson’s Film “Good Daughter” Enters the 2025 Oscars® Race
With the 2025 Oscars® season heating up, director Rachel Annette Helson, an alumni of the 2019 SHOOT New Directors Showcase, enters the race for Best Live Action Short Film with Good Daughter, a crime drama that stars Netflix alum Samantha Sloyan. Good Daughter follows Rebecca (Sloyan), a woman who cons dementia patients by pretending to be their daughter – until the con catches up with her. The gripping narrative explores the rampant issue of financial exploitation of vulnerable seniors, and it’s personal for Helson. “Both of my Grandmothers passed away from Alzheimer’s,” she shared. “My family spent lots of time in the memory care facilities with them, but not everyone was so lucky. I saw a lot of lonely, abandoned people who had few visitors and no one by their side as they were dying. Good Daughter grapples with complex moral questions as it looks at someone who gives time to patients in their last days – but takes valuables in return. And there’s a great reveal at the end that really brings it full circle.” A huge part of the film’s success goes to lead actress Samantha Sloyan whose performance has been universally praised - and even won her the Best Actress award at Cindependent Film Festival as well as a Best Actress Nomination at Catalina Film Festival. “Samantha brought the perfect blend of humanity, humor and nuance to the role,” said Helson. “Her performance will make you laugh and punch you in the gut. She’s truly a powerhouse.” Sloyan has garnered accolades in recent years for playing characters that audiences love to hate. Most famously, she starred as Beverly Keane in the hit mini-series Midnight Mass, earning a nomination for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series by the... Read More
