The Challenger

Where is the happy medium between scientific ethics, personal responsibility toward yourself, truth and politics? A drama about the investigation of one of the greatest tragedies of the space program at the very end of the Cold War by an independent committee where each member has its own more or less hidden agenda. It clings to reality and also meets the criteria for a good conspiration thriller; behind-the-scenes politics, secretly delivered notes, lost notes, uncooperative management... It’s all here. And although this is primarily about the investigation of the causes of the accident, it doesn’t nearly stop there. (04/05/2014)
