reality

After 9/11, this was the first movie I've ever seen that actually tells the story of the disaster that happened on 9/11. This is a drama, not a disaster movie. When the director deals with it, the description of the film always uses "real time", that is, the time when it happened. In addition to the actors, some of the performers are their real people. All of this shows that I wanted to photograph the situation truthfully, without adding salt or vinegar. Unlike other films that promote Americanism, or people's heroes, etc.

911, I still remember when I was eating at home with my family and watching TV, watching the World Trade Center being hit by a passenger plane. I will never forget that scene in my life. Such a profound picture in the movie has also awakened everyone's memory, although I believe that it is impossible for everyone to forget it. I don't think the purpose of this film is to provoke sadness, but to tell everyone not to forget this lesson.
