Munich '72
Munich '72
On September 5, 1972, Palestinian extremists infiltrated the athletes’ dorms at
the Munich Summer Olympics to take 11 Israeli athletes hostage and eventually
murdered them all before being killed or captured by the German police.
Award-winning filmmaker Stephen Crisman revisits that tragic day in chilling detail
through new interviews with both Israelis and Palestinians, as well as family
members, eyewitnesses, Olympic authorities and government officials. An
intensely emotional account of the first act of modern terrorism viewed worldwide
as it unfolded, Munich ’72 and Beyond exposes shocking new information
about the tragic events and their devastating aftermath, as well as chronicling the
four-decade-long struggle to create a public memorial to the victims of the
massacre.
