Explores how two teenagers, who were just weeks away from graduating, embarked on a killing spree of such shocking magnitude that it was to make the name of an American high school synonymous with tragedy.
20th April 1999 began like any other day for the pupils of Columbine High School. However, it was to end as a day that would be tragically etched in American history after two of the school’s students embarked on a murderous rampage that shook the local community to its core, pushed the emergency services to the limit and became headline news all over the world.
This documentary on Columbine is refreshing because it is informative and has good, emotional interviews without trying to dig deep into why the killers did what they did. There’s a heavier focus on the victims, survivors, and their families.
