Follow Me:  The Yoni Netanyahu Story

From the producers of Paper Clips, a new, moving portrait of Yoni Netanyahu, who was killed leading the 1976 hostage rescue mission at the Entebbe Airport. Yoni’s life is explored through his own poetry and letters.  The film includes rarely seen footage of the raid itself, as covered by Walter Cronkite and interviews with Shimon Peres, Ehud Barak and Yoni's brother, Benjamin (Bibi) Netanyahu. The MVJF is proud to screen “Follow Me” prior to its opening in NY, Toronto and LA!

From Broadway to film “Yisrael's moving story, with    its wonderful comic moments and wacky observations, took me on a wild ride of fun.”
