September 5 Age rating 15

“September 5” explores a pivotal moment that transformed media coverage, set during the 1972 Munich Olympics when Israeli athletes were taken hostage.

The film follows ambitious producer Geoff (John Magaro) as he steps up to lead live coverage under pressure from his legendary boss, Roone Arledge (Peter Sarsgaard). Joined by interpreter Marianne (Leonie Benesch) and mentor Marvin Bader (Ben Chaplin), Geoff navigates shifting narratives, conflicting rumours, and moral dilemmas with lives hanging in the balance.

This fresh perspective highlights how an American sports team adapted to global news coverage seen by an estimated one billion viewers worldwide.
