Children of 9/11: Our Story 

Monday 

Channel 4, 9pm 

To mark the 20^th anniversary of the tragic events of 9/11, this emotional and intimate film follows the stories of six young people whose dads were killed in the attack before they got to know or even meet them. 

These young people’s lives have been shaped by an event that for some happened before they were born.

Among the thousands of victims of 9/11, there were 105 expectant fathers. The documentary brings together six of these children and discovers how they grew up in the shadow of such trauma. 

The documentary also features home movie footage from the children’s lives and candid interviews with their mothers.
