Synopsis

In 1972, the world was shocked to learn that members of the Israeli Olympic Team had been taken hostage by Palestinian terrorists. In this documentary, seven survivors of the team recall what they witnessed and how they escaped. The men’s reminiscences and commentaries are powerful in their honesty and openness. Four decades later, we re-live their hopeful arrival at the games, the hostage drama, the failed rescue attempt and the memorial service.
