About this movie

When the Twin Towers were attacked on September 11, 2001, students had just started their day at Stuyvesant High School, a few blocks away. Through intimate conversations with eight individuals who were there, this documentary offers a unique perspective on that tragic day. Directed and produced by Emmy®-winner Amy Schatz, the film weaves footage of the attack with compelling commentary from student eyewitnesses—and explores the ways in which September 11 shaped these young lives.
