We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free screening of September 5! One of the best-reviewed films of the year, it stars Peter Sarsgaard, Ben Chaplin, John Magaro, Leonie Benesch, and Benjamin Walker.
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. Through this lens, “September 5” provides a fresh perspective on the live broadcast seen globally by an estimated one billion people at the time.
The screening takes place on Tuesday, January 7th at 7:00pm at AMC Georgetown. If you’d like to attend, RSVP at the Gofobo site here. Please remember that all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating. Enjoy the show!
September 5 opens in Select Theatres in Washington, DC on January 10th and Nationwide January 17th.
