Jeremy Schaap presents: The Survivor
Monday, December 12 | 7 p.m.
The Westport Library
ESPN reporter Jeremy Schaap will screen his new film, The Survivor, an ESPN-produced documentary that looks back at the 1972 Munich Massacre, when Palestinian terrorists murdered 11 Israeli sportsmen at the Summer Olympics. Schaap traveled to Israel and Germany to tell the story through the eyes of 86-year-old Israeli race walker Shaul Ladany, who survived the massacre, as he had World War II and the Holocaust when he was a child. Schaap also will host a talk after the screening, to be held in the Library’s Trefz Forum.
