Raël Docuseries to Bow on Netflix

Raël: The Last Prophet is being prepped by Banijay France’s factual label KM for its Netflix debut.

The four-parter, which launches on February 7, traces how a UFO-inspired religion spiraled into a controversial cult. Through investigative work and recovered documents, the show delves into the world of Raëlism, a religious movement founded in France by Claude Vorilhon.

Catherine Alvaresse, CEO at KM, commented: “Drawing on archives and unpublished testimonies, this gripping series takes us to the heart of this fascinating religion. Featuring interviews with his followers, critics and Raël himself, it will explore the sources of belief and contradictions behind this movement and ways it has evolved over the last five decades. This real-life story gives a sneak peek into an untapped world and promises to be a thrilling watch.”
