September 5 Movie Featurette - Live On Air - Plot Synopsis: September 5 unveils the decisive moment that forever changed media coverage and continues to impact live news today.

Set during the 1972 Munich Summer Olympics, the film follows an American Sports broadcasting team that quickly adapted from sports reporting to live coverage of the Israeli athletes taken hostage.

At the heart of the story is Geoff (John Magaro), an ambitious producer striving to prove himself to his boss, legendary TV executive Roone Arledge (Peter Sarsgaard).

Together with German interpreter Marianne (Leonie Benesch) & his mentor Marvin Bader (Ben Chaplin), Geoff unexpectedly takes the helm of the live coverage.

As narratives shift, time ticks away, and conflicting rumors spread, with the hostages' lives hanging in the balance, he grapples with tough decisions while confronting his own moral compass.

September 5 is directed by German filmmaker Tim Fehlbaum.
