The dramatic story of the April 2013 terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon is recounted through the emotional experiences of individuals whose lives were forever impacted. The film follows events as they unfolded that day and over the next two years, to the death penalty sentence for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. The film features surveillance footage, news clips, home movies and exclusive interviews with survivors and their families, as well as first responders, investigators, government officials and reporters from the Boston Globe, which won a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage. Over the course of three years, a newlywed couple, a mother and daughter, two brothers, all injured by the blast, face the challenges of physical and emotional recovery as they and their families strive to reclaim their lives and communities in the wake of terrorism.
