The Bibi Files
Directed by Alexis Bloom1h 55m2024
Using never-seen-before interrogation footage, this investigation of Benjamin Netanyahu and his inner circle provides an unflinching gaze into the private world behind the headlines. Petty vanity and a sense of entitlement lead to corruption and the Netanyahus' unwillingness to give up power. The extreme right senses opportunity in Bibi's weakness, and the dominos fall.
Our read: The Bibi Files (2024) reads as a heavy, steady, grounded documentary entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
Heavy, steady, measured documentary, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, mid-stakes, cold.
