This is a bit lengthy, over 80 minutes, but well worth it!

September 4th marked the 35th Anniversary of the Munich Massacre, when 11 Israeli atheletes were murdered at the Munich Olympics by PLO terrorists... I previously commented on this documentart after watching Steven Speilberg's atrocious film "Munich".

This film offers an emotional portrayal of the  the men and their families, something never seen in Spielberg's film. The young men whos lives were tragically cut short (like 18 year-old Mark Slavin), the father who would never again see their children grow, and the families whose lives lay shattered and destroyed as their loved ones murderers were allowed to walk free.

Its very unusual for a documentary in that the terrorists are not shown in a sympathetic light

I do agree with you regarding some aspects of the documentary. But I find it much better than Spielberg's "Munich'', where the terrorists who did this are then portrayed as victims in a "neverending cycle of violence"... >:(

I thought Munich was rubbish too.
