SEPTEMBER 5 handelt von dem Terroranschlag bei den Olympischen Spielen 1972 in München, der aus einer besonderen Perspektive erzählt wird: Die wahre Geschichte einer amerikanischen Fernsehcrew, die an diesem historischen Tag völlig unvorbereitet von Sport- auf Nachrichtenberichterstattung umschalten musste. Es ist eine hochspannende Geschichte über journalistische Verantwortung und ein Thema, das jeden Tag wichtiger wird: die Macht der Medien.
