One Day in September

Aroview: Compelling reconstruction of events surrounding the terrorist siege that took centre-stage at the Munich Olympic Games in 1972, where eleven members of the Israeli athletic team were held to ransom by a Palestinian extremist group, Black September.

Presenting a myriad of points of view (including a remarkable interview with the last surviving terrorist), this relives the heart-stopping tension and heart-rending poignancy while exposing media misinformation and the alarming ill-preparedness and incompetence of the German authorities. Narrated by Michael Douglas.
