The documentary ‘One Day in September’ also covers Munich and I remember it flooring me as someone who didn’t know more than a hazy sketch of the story beforehand. That was a long time ago, though, so not sure how it’s aged?
Also a ton of great gymnastics content has come out the past few years that, while it doesn’t all address the Nassar abomination directly, gives a detailing of the system that allowed the abuse. Price of Gold (HBO) and Believed (NPR) are more directly about Nassar and the system, but for a bigger picture (and also horrifying, at times) view check out ‘Heavy Medals: Inside the Karoyli Empire,’ a pod series from ESPN. And hell, this is now just me talking gymnastics, so throw in ‘Simone vs. Herself’ on Facebook Watch for insight into her life leading up to these Olympics and the strain of being a survivor and the pandemic. Really puts the past few days into perspective.
