Unveiling a decisive moment that forever changed media coverage and continues to impact live news today, September 5 is a gripping, dramatic account of the events around the 1972 Munich Olympics and follows an ABC broadcasting team that quickly adapted from sports reporting to live coverage as the Israeli athletes were taken hostage.

This film gives us a fresh perspective on a live broadcast that was seen globally by an estimated one billion people at the time, and pays tribute to the dedicated team who worked to make sure the ordeal was documented.
