This is about November 22, 1963 the day when John F Kennedy, the president of the USA was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, as well as the three days that followed.
It tells the true story of how different people reacted and how many of them like the secret service and FBI agents had to make split decisions in this time of shock and trauma.
There was also the cameraman who captured the whole ordeal whose life was irrevocably changed.
The story also shows how the doctors and nurses at Parkland Hospital did everything in their power to save the president.
The same doctors only days after that did the same for the man who apparently shot the president, Lee Harvey Oswald, who was shot before he could stand trial.
The story also shows the shock of Oswald’s brother and denial of his mother and how he had no-one but his family at his funeral.
While the president was properly buried, the Oswald family had to ask press reporters to help them carry his coffin to the grave.
