"Nobody is above the law." Except pretty much every politician and billionaire. Jolt has revealed an official trailer for a new documentary film called The Bibi Files, which first premiered at the 2024 Toronto Film Festival this fall. It's described as "the documentary Benjamin Netanyahu tried to ban" by court order but it fell through. It might also be called a controversial doc, but it's only really "controversial" because it dares to tell the truth and show that Netanyahu is a corrupt, power-hungry, war criminal. Using never-seen-before interrogation footage, this investigation of Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu and his inner circle provides an unflinching gaze into the private world behind the headlines and the TV reports. Petty vanity and a sense of entitlement leads to corruption, and the unwillingness of the Netanyahus to give up power. The extreme right senses opportunity in Bibi’s weakness, and the dominos fall. Another powerful doc about the truth, but I still doubt it will change anything or have enough of an impact to really save more lives. We can only hope. Here's the main official trailer for Alexis Bloom's doc The Bibi Files, direct from Jolt's YouTube: Using never-seen-before interrogation footage, this investigation of Benjamin […]

Two women, three countries, one relentless pursuit of democracy. HBO has revealed the official trailer for a documentary film titled Night is Not Eternal, the next film by doc filmmaker Nanfu Wang (One Child Nation, In the Same Breath). This recently premiered at a small film festival and is now set for a streaming launching on HBO & Max starting next week. For seven years she has followed Rosa Maria Paya, daughter of the five time Nobel Peace Prize nominated activist, Oswaldo Paya, in Rosa's fight for democracy in Cuba. Interwoven with Rosa's narrative are Nanfu’s poignant reflections on her Chinese upbringing and of eroding democratic norms in the US, revealing unsettling similarities to the authoritarian system she left behind. A powerful meditation on political change and individual action against seemingly insurmountable odds, the doc Night is Not Eternal reflects on the complexities of exile and small acts of defiance to create a narrative that crosses geographical boundaries exploring a universal longing for freedom. If you're curious, get a look. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Nanfu Wang's doc Night Is Not Eternal, direct from YouTube: Night Is Not Eternal is a deeply personal exploration of political activism through […]
