has boarded “Munich ’72,” a documentary series about the attack perpetrated by a Palestinian militant organization at the Munich games Olympic Village in 1972.
The three-parter will be the first Israeli series to chronicle the events of Sept. 5, 1972, when a Palestinian group known as Black September stormed the Olympic Village and abducted members of the Israeli Olympic team. The ensuing political debacle resulted in a botched rescue operation that ended with all 11 hostages getting killed.
Shumunov said the documentary “will shed new light on the tragic events of the Munich Olympics, which continue to cast a shadow upon us to this day.”“We are highly committed and honored to contribute to this documentary as co-producers and engage people in conversation about the Munich attack at the Olympic Games ahead of the 50th anniversary in September 2022,” said Julia Weber, head of international sales and acquisitions at Global Screen.
