It may be hard to believe for many, but nearly 20 years have passed since thousands of innocent people were killed in New York on September 11, 2011. As the 20th anniversary of that fateful day approaches, Netflix is unveiling a new documentary series that reflects on that tragic day while examining how it changed society forever.
“Modern history can be divided into two-time frames: before 9/11 and after 9/11. This five-part docuseries from director Brian Knappenberger is a cohesive chronicle of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the U.S., offering illuminating perspectives and personal stories of how the catastrophic events of that day changed the course of the nation,” the description reads.
“From the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 to the country’s breathtaking collapse back into the hands of the Taliban just weeks before the twentieth anniversary of the attacks, history continues to be made.”
Turning Point: 9/11 and the War on Terror will debut on Netflix on September 1. Watch the trailer below.
