“Fourteen years after his first visit, Louis Theroux meets some of the growing community of religious-nationalist Israelis who have settled in the occupied West Bank,” a synopsis of the doc reads.
“Louis Theroux is a genre-defining documentary filmmaker and presenter, best known for his deeply immersive and empathetic programs that explore the intricate and often contentious facets of human existence,” the Copenhagen fest highlighted. “These include his BAFTA‑winning series Louis Theroux’s Weird Weekends and When Louis Met…alongside a string of acclaimed and award-winning documentaries. Louis Theroux immerses himself in challenging environments, allowing his audience a glimpse into the often-unseen corners of our world.”
CPH:DOX 2026 will dedicate an evening to the documentarist on March 18, screening his latest film about Israeli settlers on the West Bank, followed by a conversation with Politics journalist Lotte Folke Kaarsholm about the making of the film and his approach to documentary filmmaking.
The Copenhagen fest previously said it would pay tribute to Belgian cycling legend “The Cannibal” Eddy Merckx with the Danish premiere of Christophe Hermans and Boris Tilquin’s doc Merckx – Race of a Championas well as screen A World Gone Mad – The War Diaries of Astrid Lindgren.
