9/11: The Falling Man
Directed by Henry Singer
Produced by Roadshow Productions, DSP
A somber, intellectually rigorous documentary that uses a single haunting photograph to examine mortality, media ethics, and collective trauma in the aftermath of 9/11.
An examination of an image - a falling man from the North Tower, frozen in mid air - circulated by the press immediately after the September 11 attacks, the public's reaction, and why it was later deemed un-newsworthy.
