Their daughter, Lizzie Borden, was accused, arrested, and ultimately acquitted—but more than 130 years later, no one has ever been convicted of the killings.

On September 11, 2001, the world witnessed one of the most devastating and consequential days in modern history. This documentary reconstructs the events of 9/11 minute by minute, drawing on the firsthand accounts of firefighters, air-traffic controllers, journalists, intelligence officials, government personnel, and witnesses who experienced the attacks as they unfolded.

Most importantly, the documentary remembers the ordinary people who became extraordinary in a moment of unimaginable crisis—passengers, firefighters, police officers, rescue workers, journalists, and civilians who helped others despite the danger around them.

Her ancestor David Carll was one of the first to enlist after the ban on black soldiers serving on the Union side of the Civil War was lifted and, at the National Archives in Washington, DC, Vanessa uncovers an unbelievably rare tintype photograph of him.
