Original Content podcast: Netflix's 'Red Sea Diving Resort' awkwardly mixes fiction and reality

Original Content podcast: Netflix's 'Red Sea Diving Resort' awkwardly mixes fiction and reality

"The Red Sea Diving Resort," a new film on Netflix, is based on the true story of Mossad agents who took over an abandoned holiday resort in Sudan to smuggle Jewish Ethiopian refugees out of the country. As we explain in the latest episode of the Original Content podcast, the film feels like it's made in the "Argo" mold, fashioning a political thriller out of too-crazy-for-fiction events. The film also skimps on providing any broader political context.
