Manhunt: The Search for Bin Laden

Manhunt: The Search for Bin Laden explores the CIA’s behind-the-scenes investigation into Osama bin Laden from the early 1990s to his death in 2011. It features accounts from CIA analysts and operatives who spent more than a decade gathering intelligence and tracking bin Laden. Despite warning the government for years about the possibility of a terror attack prior to 9/11, these same analysts were later blamed for failing to prevent it.

The film showcases archival footage from Washington, Pakistan, and the Middle East. It also features rare footage of al-Qaeda training camps, propaganda materials, and suicide notes left by terrorists who went on to carry out suicide attacks.
