Charlie Hebdo: 3 Days That Shook ParisJanuary 10, 2016

This is the definitive story of the Charlie Hebdo massacre in January 2015, and of the three days of horror that followed, leaving twenty dead and a nation traumatised. A true ticking-clock film, the documentary will be structured tightly around the three days of terror. The keyword is immediacy, so that we feel like we’re watching a drama, but where real lives are at stake, and every word is true. The film will unfold in the present tense, using UGC and police footage to take us into the heart of the action and, providing the emotional heartbeat of the film, powerful interviews with those who were there.

Charlie Hebdo: 3 Days That Shook Paris was broadcast on SBS ONE at Saturday 31 March 2018, 17:00. This episode was initially placed on Sunday 10 January 2016.
