During the 1972 Munich Olympics, an American sports broadcasting crew finds itself thrust into covering the hostage crisis involving Israeli athletes.
Q-tips say: Yes, watch it. “September 5” takes viewers inside a TV control room in 1972, where ABC Sports broadcasters face an unprecedented crisis: gunmen from the Palestinian militant group Black September have infiltrated the Olympic village, killed two members of the Israeli athletic team, and taken nine others hostage.
Mrs. Q says: September 5 depicts the terrorist attack on the Israeli Olympic team in Munich from the standpoint of the news team. This movie is very powerful as it describes an important event in history, which is still relevant today.
