Washington Post Media reporter Farhi, Director Jesse Dylan to discuss "Soros" documentary, April 16

Jesse Dylan, director and producer of "Soros"

Jesse Dylan, director and executive producer of “Soros,” a documentary about billionaire activist, investor and “The Man Who Broke the Bank of England” George Soros, will appear at a National Press Club virtual event to discuss the film and its somewhat mysterious subject on Friday, April 16, at 2 p.m.

Members of the National Press Club can register online to receive a link to watch the documentary, free-of-charge, in advance of the event. Non-members are encouraged to access the film at www.sorosfilm.com.

Most recently the target of Myanmar’s government, which detained an employee of his philanthropic foundation, and often the focus of conspiracy theories, Soros is notoriously media-shy. Dylan speaks to him, his supporters and his detractors, about his political activism, philanthropic endeavors and personal history, including his experience as a Jew during the Holocaust.

Dylan is the director of the “Yes We Can” video on behalf of Barack Obama and is the son of Nobel laureate Bob Dylan. Joining the discussion will be Lisa Matthews, President of the National Press Club, and Paul Farhi, media reporter for The Washington Post. To submit a question for the panel, please send an email to [email protected] with the subject line Soros.
