Im fliegenden Sarg - Der Tag der Entscheidung Mogadischu, den 17.10.1977

This 30 minute documentary covers the last 20 hours before the raid on the "Landshut", based on original recordings from the only TV reporter present on the scene.

Overview

The ARD Middle-East correspondent Kurt Stenzel was already in Mogadishu ahead of the "Landshut." He was the only television reporter to have experienced the last twenty hours up to the raid of the plane. The film roles he brought to Germany the next day were kept and were technically reprocessed in this film by Ingo Helm.
