British director Paul Greengrass presents this documentary-style re-enactment of events, based on honest assumptions of passengers' reactions that day on September 11, 2001, when United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Pennsylvania. The story flashes back and forth between air traffic control centers and the flight itself as ordinary people were caught in a dire situation during which they colllectively determined to resist the terrorists now flying the plane by rushing the cockpit–or die trying to accomplish their heroic deed. The film recieved two Oscar nominations, including Best Director.
