Dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y

Name: Dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y
Director: Johan Grimonprez
Released: 1997-01-01T00:00:00Z

An acclaimed hijacking documentary that eerily foreshadowed 9/11. We meet the romantic skyjackers who fought their revolutions and won airtime on the passenger planes of the 1960's and 1970's. By the 1990's, such characters were apparently no more, replaced on our TV screens by stories of anonymous bombs in suitcases. Director Johan Grimonprez investigates the politics behind this change, at the same time unwrapping our own complicity in the urge for ultimate disaster.

Runtime: 68

Release date: 1997-01-01
