About the project:
In the months since US Navy SEALs shot and killed Osama bin Laden, news media have written the first draft of history. But so far, no one has told the epic story of human, political and diplomatic intrigue that began years before 9/11 and ended in a bloody ambush in Pakistan, May 2, 2011.
Fulscrn worked with producers at CBC’s flagship investigative program, the fifth estate and cbcnews.ca to create an innovative interactive documentary that examines the hunt for Osama bin Laden and brings the raid on his Abbottabad compound vividly to life.
The interactive experience features dramatic recreations, stunning original footage, and provocative exclusive interviews with the people at the heart of the operation including high-level members of the US intelligence community and world leaders.
The site was a cross-media production launched in conjunction with the 2011 televised season premiere of the fifth estate and CBC News special coverage of the 9/11 anniversary.
