The latest CNN Presents documentary Impact On Terror will go beyond the headlines with an in-depth look at the 2001 Sbarro restaurant bombing in Jerusalem. It will explore how the effects of terrorism radiate beyond the immediate act. Film crews have followed the survivors in the months and years since the bombing to discover just how deeply their lives have been altered.

The special will air on 9 October at 5:30 pm with a repeat on 10 October at 9:30 am and 4:30 pm.Award-winning documentary filmmaker Tim Wolochatiuk and producers Simcha Jacobovici and Ric Bienstock piece together images taken at the scene of the bombing. Earlier photographs of the victims and first-person accounts of survivors, families, friends and medical personnel create a compelling recollection of that horrific day.

Some of the stories featured in the documentary include: a 15-year-old Miriam Shushan and her 10-year-old sister, Yocheved, who made it to the front of the line at the pizzeria when the bomber struck. The nails, nuts and bolts that tore into Miriam’s body were enough to kill anyone. But it was her little sister who died that day.

She said, “I felt like I really wanted to die, why did I survive, why am I getting stronger, what about her, I thought everything was okay?” The documentary reunites Miriam with the paramedic and doctor who saved her and helps her rebuild her life.
