Die zahlreichen Bilder vom 11. September bewahren die Erinnerung an eine beispiellose Katastrophe. Zu ihrem zehnten Jahrestag wird der Anschlag im Fernsehen wieder und wieder nachgestellt, dokumentiert, analysiert und kommentiert werden. Zum Auftakt zeigt die ARD die Dokumentation "Die Falle 9/11". Der in Teilen bestechende Film kann seine reißerische These allerdings nicht erhärten.

Based on the research for his non-fiction book "Der Baader-Meinhoff-Komplex", "Spiegel" journalist Stefan Aust wrote the screen play to Reinhard Hauff’s controversial feature film that re-narrates the startling trial against the RAF terrorists Baader, Meinhoff, Ensslin, and Raspe. The trial that started in May 1975 in the Stammheim maximum-security prison extended over 192 days and ended with a lifetime sentence for all defendants.

The Stammheim trial against the leadership of the first generation of the RAF was one of the most elaborate in the Federal Republic of Germany. Through this trial, Stammheim also became a place of identity for the RAF. The docudrama uses the perspective of Horst Bubeck, who as a prison officer in the cell wing had the most intensive contact with the prisoners, to shed new light on the history.
