HBO Show News: Raising Renee

Painter Beverly McIver was enjoying a skyrocketing career when she promised her mother, Ethel, that she would take care of her mentally disabled sister, Renee. Years later, following Ethel’s death, that promise came due. Filmed over the course of six years, the compelling HBO2 documentary RAISING RENEE chronicles Beverly McIver’s efforts to make good on her promise when it debuts Wednesday, February 22 (8:00-9:30 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO2. A testament to the power of family bonds, this thought-provoking film is produced and directed by Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan (the Oscar-nominated “Troublesome Creek: A Midwestern”). RAISING RENEE debuts Wednesday, February 22, at 8:00 pm on HBO2.
