About the film:
“A Powerful Exposé of How Benjamin Netanyahu Has Prolonged the War in Gaza to Escape His Own Corruption Scandal” – Variety
World Premiere – Toronto International Film Festival. 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.
