Show Notes
It’s one thing to make a film about tragic historical events, but it’s another to depict them gracefully and objectively. This is exactly what director Tim Fehlbaum, his crew, and the stellar ensemble of Peter Sarsgaard, John Magaro, Ben Chaplin, and Leonie Benesch set out to do in the movie September 5.
During our sit-down with Tim, he shared what led him to his third feature, his connection to the 1972 Munich events, his approach to directing this incredibly talented cast, and the complexities of the emotional and technical sides of the story.
