Exclusive: Alex Gibney-produced Benjamin Netanyahu doc The Bibi Files, directed by Alexis Bloom, has set sales with Goodfellas ahead of a work-in-progress screening in Toronto.

With the global spotlight on Netanyahu as the death toll continues to rise in the Israel-Gaza war sparked by the October 7 Hamas attacks, the doc promises unprecedented insight into the backstory behind the Israeli prime minister’s ongoing corruption trial and how it is informing his current actions.

The work features leaked footage of police interrogation videos with Netanyahu, wife Sara, and son Yair, conducted from 2016 to 2018 as part of the eight-year criminal investigation which led up to the controversial politician’s indictment in November 2019, for breach of trust, bribery, and fraud.

This material has been intercut with interviews with key Israeli figures including former prime minister Ehud Olmert, Netanyahu’s former spokesman Nir Hefetz, former Shin Bet leader Ami Ayalon, and investigative journalist Raviv Drucker among others.
