Yes - its quite well done. It is a PBS Frontline Documentary: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/saudi-arabia-uncovered/. Also, more salient to the NYT article, I would strongly suggest http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/the-secret-history-of-isis/ . The synposis on the latter is: The Bush Administration was so intent on proving the existence of WMD's in Iraq that they inadvertently gave power to what was soon to be ISIS.
Just last week, I watched this documentary called "Saudi Arabia Uncovered" to understand its current state. Its on youtube.
