Before 9/11 and Lockerbie, one brutal attack
shook the world and inspired a new era of global terrorism. The
hijacking of Pan Am Flight 73 in Karachi in 1986 is a story of terror
and tragedy, but also a story of bravery and survival - one which could
have been incalculably worse were it not for the actions of a group of
rookie flight attendants and a Pan Am employee on the ground who risked
his life negotiating with the hijackers. Set in a gripping geopolitical
landscape, this feature length documentary plays like a thriller, with
first-hand testimony from passengers, the flight crew and negotiators,
accompanied by dramatic reconstruction.
