9/11: Life Under Attack

Gripping and horrific “first person” account of September 11 2001 from the New York street view is necessarily a tough watch, but kudos to Edwards for her marshalling of the clearly extensive array of archival footage into a clear and concise telling of the major events of the day, including the terrifying moments where the buildings collapse on themselves. Even works well as drama, without ever feeling exploitative, primarily because of the lack of melodramatic adornments.
