Netflix‘s upcoming ‘Downfall: The Case Against Boeing’ is a no-holds-barred documentary film on the two Boeing MAX 737 crashes that shook the aviation world. It is also the documentary film that Boeing doesn’t want you to see.
Directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker Rory Kennedy, ‘Downfall: The Case Against Boeing‘ premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival this week. The film comes to Netflix worldwide on 18th February.
A horrified world watched in shock as two back to back Boeing MAX 737 crashes within five months of each other in 2018 and 2019 left 346 people dead, and the aviation industry clueless. Now, the new documentary from Netflix shines a spotlight on the chilling reality of the crashes. ‘Downfall: The Case Against Boeing’ documents how the tragedy was as much a consequence of reckless greed as it was of fraud, engineering a faulty product, and concealing vital information from aviation authorities.
It chronicles how Boeing went from being a company driven by sound engineers to one driven by greedy shareholders whose only concern is profit-making, balance sheets and wall street standing. The hard-hitting documentary film lays bare harsh truths that led to the downfall of the world’s premier aeronautical company.
Rory Kennedy is known for her relentless pursuit of the truth in her documentaries. Her documentaries centre on pressing social issues such as addiction, nuclear radiation, the treatment of prisoners-of-war, and the politics of the Mexican border fence.
Downfall: The Case Against Boeing comes to Netflix on 18th February. And believe us, it is a must-watch. Don’t miss it for anything!
