A film focusing on the corruption case of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, titled 'The Bibi Files', was screened at the 18th Subversive Festival in Zagreb from May 19-31, 2025. The festival, known for highlighting politically and socially relevant films, provides a platform for examining critical issues.
'The Bibi Files', directed by Alexis Bloom, utilizes leaked interrogation footage and interviews to delve into the accusations against Netanyahu, including bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. These charges stem from cases filed in 2019, which Netanyahu denies. The film has faced legal challenges and has been banned in Israel.
The screening at the Subversive Festival occurred amidst ongoing discussions about Israeli affairs. The festival aimed to explore critical thought and subversive art, gathering filmmakers, philosophers, and activists to examine contemporary issues. The film's inclusion sparked debate and reflection on the intersection of politics, justice, and media.
