Since 2017 marks the 20th anniversary of Princess Diana‘s death, several networks have aired documentaries about her life and legacy. Tonight, HBO will air its own film, Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy, an emotional tribute from her sons, Princes William and Harry. The 65-minute film begins at 10:00 p.m. ET on Monday, July 24. If you can’t get to a television, you can still watch the film legally online.

The film provides an intimate portrait of Diana through the eyes of her children. Prince William was only 15 years old at the time of Princess Diana’s death in 1997 at age 36. Prince Harry was 12 at the time. In the film, which was produced with the U.K. network ITV, also includes interviews with some of Diana’s friends who have never spoken out before.

“This film will show Princess Diana in a way she has never been seen before, through the eyes of her sons and people who knew her best,” executive producer Nick Kent said in a statement. Ashley Gething, who directed 2016’s Our Queen at Ninety, directed Diana, Our Mother.
