In the shadow of 9/11
One hundred and five expectant fathers died in the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 and the documentary, which is available on All4, follows the lives of six of their children.
“I’ve been responsible for eight or nine 9/11 films... all of them were about the day itself. I wanted to do some- thing different for the 20th anniversary... looking forward,” said Arrow Pictures creative director John Smithson. The idea crystallised into a look at the lives of children growing up with “the loss of a father they never knew”.
