The Bibi Files is an urgent journalistic exposé based on unseen leaked footage of police interrogations of the politician as well as his wife Sara and son Yair. The film explores the corruption cases that resulted in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's indictment on breach of trust, bribery, and fraud in 2019. Many Israelis believe that Netanyahu's attempts to delay his trial are key to understanding his current policies regarding war and the return of Israeli hostages.

It's never polemical... it just lays out the evidence, which I have to say, is pretty damning.

Alexis Bloom’s riveting film — whose producers include prolific documentarist Alex Gibney — is built around leaked footage of Netanyahu, his family and associates testifying to police.

This is not an easy movie to sit through. A lot of it seems repetitive and static. It is, however, a valuable documentary for those who want to understand Israel's government and the fighting in the Middle East.

Netanyahu is a corruptible force for evil, but this film would have you believe that he’s a mere aberration in a nation’s history rather than the logical result of its misdeeds and violent actions.

The Bibi Files is not just an expertly made investigation of Israel's most notorious head of state: it’s a Macbeth-like fable of a man punch-drunk on blind ambition; a penetrating study of a man corrupted and empowered by his violent addiction to power.

The corruption and abhorrent actions of a dystopian regime is laid bare. The consequences of which many generations will have to live with.

It's March 2026 and WW3 is underway with Trump targetting Iran under Bibi's orders, using whatever compromat he and Putin have from Epstein. And this tells the story of how it all began. At the time of filming, approx 40,000 palestinians dead. Now more like 140,000, and the two proven criminals leading Israel and the US, using war as a means to avoid prison, are still untouched. How is this possible?

This documentary shines a light on the addictive thirst for power draws only the darkest malevolent people into positions of power. The level of corruption and psychopathy of Benjamin Netanyahu is a lesson for all peoplee to deploy critical thinking about their leaders and elected officials. Netanyahu will not have much of a legacy unless he destroys all of humanity.

As an American I had heard a little about the legal issues of Netanyahu. I thought the charges were probably politically motivated as they were with Donald Trump. I was mistaken. Lots of his friends and associates were among the hundreds of people interviewed by police. I know the case in his defense was not presented but I think if you're open minded it's hard not to conclude Netanyahu and his wife demanded and accepted bribes. And apparently Bibi has been trying to rig the judicial branch in Israel so he can escape accountability. Well worth watching if interested at all.
