Since: The Bombing of Pan Am Flight 103

Director: Phil Furey
Run time: 84 min.
Call number: HV6431 .S56 2016

"Furey weaves news footage from the bombing timeline and subsequent legal and political developments together with interviews with relatives of the victims, as well as family photos and home video, focusing primarily on the parents of college students who died in their early 20s. Some continue to express outrage over the shoddy treatment they say they received from Pan Am and US authorities. 'The State Department and the government tried to sweep this whole thing under the rug from day one,' says Pete Lowenstein, whose son Alexander died in the bombing."
