Screwball documentary filmmaker Billy Corben and his Miami-based production company, Rakontur, have started production on a film about the Alexander brothers, whose sex-trafficking charges and criminal case unveiled this week shines the spotlight on Miami’s luxury real estate market.
The doc Delisted: The Alexander Brothers, also from filmmaker Alfred Spellman, will focus on Tal, Oren and Alon Alexander, who have been indicted on federal sex-trafficking charges in New York.
“With access to accusers and inside players, we’re uncovering the story behind the rise and fall of ‘the kings of Miami’s high-end real estate market,’ Oren and Tal Alexander who, along with Oren’s twin brother Alon, were arrested by both federal and local authorities on charges including rape and sex trafficking,” Corben said Friday on his Instagram page.
Corben’s documentaries have in part been set in Miami, including Cocaine Cowboys and Magic City Hustle. “We’ll explore Miami’s exclusive cutthroat world of luxury realtors, the history of the Alexander family and the earliest accusations against them, which reportedly date back to their time at Krop High School,” the filmmaker added in the social media post.
The Alexander Brothers have been accused by the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York of operating a sex-trafficking scheme that led to dozens of sexual assaults of women between 2010 and 2021.
The pair were indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit sex trafficking and sex trafficking by force, cause or coercion.
The three Alexander brothers, who have pleaded not guilty to the charges, remain jailed in Miami as they were denied bail.
