In Tim Fehlbaum’s September 5, ABC has a crew in Munich for the 1972 Olympics covering the games. When members of the Israeli team are taken hostage by armed gunmen, they realize that they have an exclusive access point to the unfolding drama, navigating uncharted territory about what they can and can’t show while switching to an entirely different brand of reporting than they had planned.
Awards Buzz spoke with Leonie Benesch, who plays translator Marianne Gebhardt, about her knowledge going into the project and the research she did to better understand her character’s job. Watch the video above to hear about the response she’s seen to the film and how it feels to have this international breakthrough come on the heels of last year’s Oscar-nominated The Teachers’ Lounge.
September 5 is currently playing in limited release and opens wide on Friday, January 17th.
