A gripping historical drama that revisits the harrowing events of the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre. The film offers a unique perspective by immersing viewers in the chaotic ABC Sports control room, where journalists grappled with the unprecedented task of broadcasting a terrorist attack live to an audience of 900 million. Featuring standout performance, the narrative delves into the ethical complexities of live news coverage and the fine line between reporting and sensationalism. Praised for its meticulous attention to 1970s media technology and its claustrophobic tension, September 5 not only chronicles a tragic historical event but also prompts reflection on the role of media in shaping public perception during crises.
