TWA Flight 800

"TWA Flight 800" is a thought-provoking documentary about the ill-fated Trans World Airline Flight 800 to Paris, France, which exploded on July 17, 1996 just 12 minutes after takeoff from JFK International Airport, killing all 230 people on board. The film explores conspiracy theories that a missile strike had actually downed TWA Flight 800, contrary to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) conclusion that a short circuit caused the 1996 fuel tank explosion. Merritt Birky interviews six former members of the official crash investigation breaking their silence to refute the officially proposed cause and reveal how the investigation was systematically undermined.
