Michael Oswald and Murtaza Mehdi are the two names behind ‘Behind Closed Doors.’ The former – a director, producer and writer – is an independent documentary filmmaker based in London UK.
Oswald’s previous work includes The Man Who Knew Too Much (2020), The Spider’s Web (2017), Princes of the Yen (2014) and 97% Owned (2012).
Is Behind Closed Doors a Netflix Production?
Despite various social media claims, the makers of the documentary have neither confirmed nor denied it. Furthermore, its official website also has no mention of it releasing on Netflix.
It should be noted that the previous productions of Michael Oswald were released on the YouTube channel Independent POV. It is most likely that Behind Closed Doors will also be released on YouTube.
