(2024, Germania, 86')
On the dawn of September 5, 1972, a commando of Palestinian terrorists from the Black September organization stormed the Olympic Village in Munich, killing two Israeli athletes immediately and taking nine others hostage, who would meet a similar fate after exhausting negotiations. The film retraces the tragedy, focusing on a television broadcast that forever changed the coverage of such news events.
Born in Switzerland in 1982, Tim Fehlbaum has several short films to his credit, created shortly after graduating from the Academy of Film and Television in Munich in 2009. His apocalyptic thriller Hell, which he also wrote the screenplay for, was presented at the Locarno Film Festival in 2011 and won the Förderpreis Deutscher Film at the Munich Film Festival the same year.
