News & Updates: ‘King Bibi’ Documents Netanyahu’s Rise to Power
Benjamin Netanyahu has been the face of Israeli politics for 20 years as prime minister and Likud party chairman. But amid criminal investigations for bribery, fraud and breach of trust, and the Likud’s slippage in the last election, Netanyahu’s future is in doubt. He nevertheless remains a fascinating figure, as the documentary “King Bibi” depicts.
Subtitled “The Life and Performances of Benjamin Netanyahu,” it chronicles his rise to power, his obsession with image and his relationships with the media and President Donald Trump. It will be screened at the Israel Film Festival (IFF) in Los Angeles on Nov. 17 and 23.
