Overview
While Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda become a global threat, the rivalry between the CIA and FBI inadvertently sets the stage for the tragedy of 9/11 and the Iraq War.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A meticulous examination of institutional failure and bureaucratic dysfunction as two agencies' rivalry allows a terrorist threat to metastasize. It's a slow-building procedural thriller that accumulates dread through the weight of what we know is coming.
