November 13: Attack on Paris

I really cannot recommend this 3 part documentary highly enough. The bravery show by the victims and the emergency services is inspiring. The description of mobile phones ringing amongst the fatalities was haunting.

My only very small critique is why there were no photos of the inside of the locations. It would be helpful to know what some of the areas described look like, especially in the Bataclan.

Had to stop watching quite a few times to wipe tears from my eyes. The scale of the attack is incredible and much bigger than I knew. What the survivors experienced is unimaginable and we owe it to ourselves to watch this to understand the real impacts of terrorism.

I watch a lot of docuseries, especially war series, but none of them made me feel so speechless as this serie. It is a great witness report about the Paris attacks back in 2015. It shows us the true horror of radical Islam soldiers. The definition of hate is shown in this docuserie.

I would really recommend this serie, it won't let you untouched.

The documentary was good when if you want to know what it was like to live through a terrorist attack.

What I would reproach is that they don't talk about the type of terrorist attack it was. If it weren't for the mention of the names of the last two, you could just as easily assume it was the Chinese that were attacking.

The documentary should have added more into what these people felt regarding being attacked for no reason other than an ideology and the impact that this had on the rest of their lives. How did it change the way they see global politics, religion and human beings in general?

They make a brief mention of the "culture of Paris"... Which is just the culture of the West. But they don't take it any further with any of the hostages - the joy that they were experiencing absolutely annahilated by Islamic terrorism...

I haven't seen anything in a while that would keep me so engaged that I wouldn't look at my phone once. I sat three hours straight without moving, glued to the couch, absolutely shocked and frozen. This docuseries made me feel like I was there at the night of terror in Paris. Seeing the events through the eyes of the survivors was almost unbearably powerful. Very tough documentary but I recommend to watch it. I will probably have to watch it again to process everything fully, but I'm completely speechless. Thank you for making it and letting us see what it was like to be there, because when you read it in the papers it's just another news that you are shocked by but once you turn the pages you kind of forget about it. This documentary will always help me to remember.
