Un travail minutieux de récolte d'images a permis de reconstituer, minute par minute, ce qu'ont vécu les New-Yorkais lors du 11 septembre 2001, entre l'impact du premier avion et l'effondrement de la seconde tour. De leurs appartements, de Times Square aux quais du New Jersey, les New-Yorkais commentent, observent, et surtout filment la catastrophe. Si certains restent incrédules, d'autres sont pris de panique. Les rumeurs circulent, les transports s'arrêtent et les lignes téléphoniques sont mises hors service. L'île de Manhattan se retrouve coupée du monde. Ses habitants cherchent à fuir en marchant le long des routes et prennent d'assaut les ferries.
