King Bibi: The Life and Performances of Benjamin Netanyahu screening
2019-Jul-13 @ 22:00 - 23:27
The Dryden will screen King Bibi: The Life and Performances of Benjamin Netanyahu (Dan Shadur, Israel, USA 2018, 87 min., English, Hebrew w/ subtitles) as part of the Rochester Jewish Film Festival.
King Bibi explores Benjamin Netanyahu's rise to power, relying solely on archival footage of his media performances over the years: from his days as a popular guest expert on American TV, through his public confession of adultery, and his mastery of the art of social media. From one studio to another, "Bibi" evolved from Israel's great political hope to a controversial figure whom some perceive as Israel's savior, and others as a cynical politician who will stop at nothing to retain his power.
