"We feel it is a great privilege to be able to share these incredible stories of survival and hope. This is a project very close to our hearts, and we truly found the right partners at Netflix to make it come to life," say Jules and Gédéon Naudet.

"We are inspired by the incredible filmmaking process and storytelling, as well as the great care and integrity Jules and Gédéon brought to the stories of the victims and first responders" says Erik Barmack Vice President of International Originals at Netflix. "This is an important project for everyone here at Netflix, and we are honored to be able to provide a platform to help tell the stories of all those who went through these shattering events."
