- A baggage handler steals a suitcase that contains terrorist plans.
THE SUITCASE is used with permission from Abi Damaris Corbin. Learn more at / abicorbin .
Joe Franek is an ordinary man, a baggage handler at an airport in Boston, working in 2001. After not being paid for overtime and facing financial difficulties, he decides to steal a suitcase at his work in retaliation for being blown off by his boss.
But then two planes crash into the World Trade Center, and the suitcase takes on new significance. Upon opening the pilfered bag, Joe discovers something he did not expect: plans for a terrorist attack. The discovery turns his life upside-down in ways he never anticipated, pushing him to think and act in ways he never has before.
Writer-director Abi Damaris Corbin's powerful drama/thriller is cerebral yet propulsive storytelling at its best, with the look and feel and the ambitious narrative scope of a feature. It takes its time to carefully lay out the moving pieces of what becomes a complex gameboard. But as the story unfolds, the pieces fall into place with a weighty sense of inevitability-- and shows how the smallest, seemingly inconsequential details are actually the most crucial.
As with many thrillers, much of the film's initial power rests on an excellent command of craftsmanship. The muted palette, quicksilver editing and a meticulously constructed script efficiently establish character, details and stakes, with a sense of resonance and responsibility. The narrative is actually quite complex and must structure an interlocking chain of events with care and precision, and yet the storytelling moves quickly.
But when the film takes its time to settle upon the central figure of Joe -- a humble everyman with issues, problems and concerns -- he proves to be a grounding figure in this complex narrative. Through actor Mojean Aria's strong performance, Joe gives audiences an anchor as a swirl of circumstances quickens with intensity, as Joe and his fellow baggage handlers watch on TV as two planes crash into the World Trade Center towers.
It's undeniably that much of the poignancy of THE SUITCASE rests on its historical import, on an event that still exerts a powerful influence on geopolitical events and policy today. But it offers a different window to look at the sweeping events of 9/11, one that showcases how the actions and decisions of one seemingly "small" person had an impact on that shocking day.
There were many heroes on the day that the towers fell -- many unacknowledged, unnamed and perhaps lost to the larger sweep of historical memory, but whose roles in the larger mosaic were crucial to saving more lives than we perhaps could ever quantify. THE SUITCASE acknowledges the moral urgency, duty and allegiance to community beyond the individual self at the core of these unnamed people, and asks us to reflect on how speaking up can have a resonance larger than we could ever initially conceive. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Can you imagine *knowing* what you held in your hands and the gravity that it had in American history and getting fired anyway?
Its a mere movie.
@@vrajananda What about that bit and the end. I'm not saying that's how it went down. People always make themselves the hero of their own story, but that seems like there's kernel of truth there.....
There are unknown heroes saving the world from ending every day. And here we are living our lives not knowing that the world almost ended 5 minutes ago. For perspective, there was a Cuban Admiral who didn’t fire on a US vessel. In that vessel there was a US captain who also didn’t fire on the Cuban submarine. This was during the embargo and Cuban missile crisis. Both men on opposite sides disobeyed orders from their superiors, they were dishonorably discharged, and their citizens wanted to execute them. There were protests in DC for bargaining with the enemy. But that day, due to the treason of those 2 men, cooler heads prevailed, and the US and Cuba remain in 1 piece.
@Beate Zackey let s say based on a narrative. It remains nonetheless a mere movie with actors, scénario and directory.
@Am Pat bro i feel ya
Wow he did their job for them and still lost his job. A simple thank you would have sufficed
No, he deserves a medal. He risked his Life and that suitcase was an inflection point.
@@drd.n4695 🙏🏽 amen
@@drd.n4695 yeah
The man should sue
He didn’t do anyone’s job. I’m confused what you think he did. You can’t reward someone for breaking the law. That’s called consequtialism, where the ends justify the means. But that’s not true, if they did we’d give up all our freedoms and let everyone go through our bags at will. Did their job? So if they weren’t terrorists and that was your bag, you’d be cool with handlers taking money out of your bag and going through it? He still broke the law, and he wouldn’t have known what he had known without doing so.
19 years ago I was in the 1st grade and I got called out of school early- I thought my mom was taking me out of school for a fun reason. I get home and am sat in front of the TV to see the WTC coming down. my dad was in the NYPD at the time- so i also had a mild understanding that he was there in that mess. my dad was a hero that day and i'm so lucky to have him in my life to this day still.
She pulled you out to see people die
Same here, I went kindergarten in Newark NJ. My school was on top of a hill, my home room was on the 4th floor. The Hudson River was right across my school, and a little further the Twin Towers in the distance. I’ve never seen so much smoke in my life. I remember seeing an army of coast guard and naval officers in the Hudson River. My mom used to work in Manhattan back then at a Hotel as a maid. The phone lines were not working in the tri state area, there was no way she could contact my grandfather to come pick me up. And the PATH train to Newark NJ from 33rd street Manhattan was closed for obvious reasons. She had to stay in the hotel where she worked for 2 days before finally being able to come home.
On a side note, my grandfather eventually came to pick me up.
My brother and I were homeschooled at the time, I was 12 at the time. I remember when I woke up, my parents were watching the whole thing on the news. And because my father was enlisted in the military and could have been deployed to Afghanistan, we had to be put back in regular school. Thankfully he was never deployed to war.
@@hopefuldavid3320 No she wanted him safely at home by her side.
I was in 5th grade when 9/11 happened. I was studying in Peshawar, a city on the Pak-Afghan border. My school was shut down for 3 months after 9/11 happened because of the constant bombardment by America in Afghanistan the government was afraid Peshawar might get hit too. Also, because Pakistan was helping the US to carry out those attacks there was danger of terrorist attack by the Afghan Militants. At the time i just found it very weird that some tower blowing up half way across the world meant i couldn't go to school and neither could any of my friends. My school was shut down again when US was invading Iraq. Again, i felt like that was just pointless and felt angered by the whole ordeal.
Years later, after my graduation, in December of 2014 my school was attacked by the Taliban when 6 gunmen entered the school and opened fire killing 149 people including 132 childern and the mother of my good friend who was the principal of the school at the time, she was blown up by a grenade after she refused to disclose the location of the kids who were hiding in the school.
I feel like Pakistan is like the protagonist in the film. Had the best intention at heart, paid a huge price tryna do the right thing while getting blamed for it.
I am a flight attendant, and often times I am the most junior one on majority of my flights since I work with people that are flying for over 30-40 years. Whenever I see our gate agents, luggage handlers and maintenance crew, I offer them a drink or give them a pax water bottle to take with them. I get told by some senior FAs that I make them look bad or spoil these people and raise their expectations. I disagree! Everyone that works at the airport plays a part in bringing loved ones together, and taking millions of people home safely. We are all equal regardless of the uniforms we wear. This man is a hero.
Yeah Frozen that's beautiful man.
I like you Frozan, you are one of the good ones.
why hasnt this gotten more likes?

I have so much respect for you, you are one amazing person

Dude: THERES A BOMB IN THE BAG THERES A BOMB IN THE BAG

Just felt like I watched a full length film! Drew me in and kept me captivated. Well done!
Yea omeleto does this to you
Yeah I love watching these short films, they are so well made and as you say it’s like you just watched a movie.
Movie is called : The Suitcase.
@@takitachibana1267 I think username might be talking about the quality of omeleto films in general. I concur.
Agreed. Well done. 👍
The unsung hero. Well done, Boston baggage handler.
It's Boston, you idiot. The flight was TO lax.
Hope the Boston baggage handler is watching this....feel proud sir...you saved lives...
I think you must have missed what happened, they could have saved lives but we're too ignorant to pay attention.Flight 11 never landed.😢
I read it as baguette handler and was confused for the first 3 minutes

The guy only had mere minutes to save countless lives. It was great
What an ungrateful system we live in & he never got his job back. I'd rather work in a car shop than an airport anyways. Seriously
This is a fictitious short film btw
@Beate Zackey Better expand the research dont just rely on the credits. That the bag was owned by Mohammed Atta was true. However authorities zeroed in on it because Atta was already identified through a previous phone call from a flight attendant. That there is a bag handler, with intent of theft, who discovered it, bravely rode into the tarmac, and informed the authorities, it is fiction.
@@broccolihighkicks3857 it doesn't matter the degree of fiction. It is the truth about the system we live in. We ALL live in fiction btw
@@JorgeContreras-oo2ih Well hello there philosopher Jorge
@@dr.martinlroberts1908 thank you, sir
Good for him man. Put everything on the line and saved people.
Thank God he was fired. Now he can go find an employer that truly appreciates him.
he was a thief who struggled with basic menial tasks, like delivering a bag. stop glorifying him because he coincidentally found a crime while committing a crime
@@vivaene exactly!
Or become his own boss
I don’t understand what he did.
😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😍🤣🤣
That guy deserves to go down in history! He deserves a medal. Look how far he went despite the damage it did to him, and how many lives he saved.
Maybe they fired him because they didn't want it to become public it everybody know they could have stopped it and figured they just fire him and he told stories nobody would ever believe it and they would just cover it up
True...but they knew anyway. It has been proved that CIA and NSA had evidence the 11/9 were being planned and just let them happen. They needed a new enemy after the collapse of the USSR, they can't allow people to be happy and unafraid...otherwise they'd start to question the powers that be.
Stop it? It had already happened, the bag just had evidence in it that was useful
@@Albanez39 kinda true, they knew a big attack was coming they just didn't know how or where it would be so instead of worrying the public they kept it a secret to keep public interest
@@kingknog9318 yes but there would have been more in the future and it helped them find many of the people responsible

This is very well-produced. It's like an episode of the classic tv show called "24", and it is based off of real-life events.
Omg I LOVE 24!!!! I used to watch the episodes as they aired on TV. Jack was the best
I heard about that show called 24 on a thing called the internet from a thing called a human
@@mspumpkin990 jack Bauer the best
Jesse’ Middleton 24 is not based off of real events they was 1 thing were everyone thought 9/11 would happen because jack went rouge and had to take a plane under control
based *ON* real life events - a person gets *off of* a bed, okay?
so he lost his job after all? life isn't fair.
america isnt
@@lousimons Yeah, sadly.
He illegally opened a bag, that's violating someone's privacy without a legal reason. The action produced some great evidence, but only as a result of coincidence.
yaksvk if the bag was supposed to be on the flight but it wasn’t, that’s good enough for them to search the bag. In a situation this serious they’ll take anything with gratitude.
@@yaksvk Yes, i get that what he did was a violation of privacy, but it helped in a big way. Taking into account that he knew the risk but went through all those length to let them know his findings, they could have fired him but also "rewarded" him for having the courage to speak up even when his job was at stake. He was a "Hero" but anyways, i guess we live in a reality where hero's are not rewarded for their kind effort.
This video has to be the most amazing things I have ever saw on You Tube. It pulled me in and the ending just blew me away. I never knew about that piece of baggage before I watched it. Although the ending was bittersweet, the unnamed man saved countless lives.
you need to get out more . . . after Covid19 ends . . . okay?
No lives we're saved as a result of his actions?The planes hit.
@@MrOx85the info on the bag led to those responsible, so they couldn’t plan another attach. Lives were saved.
Just realised next year it will be 20 years - takes me right back to that moment when first found out - I was alone, had been reading a book in the afternoon sun, came inside and turned in the tv - it still makes me weep to this day - the world changed that day and for hours I hadn't known it, just had a 'normal' day until that moment I turned on tv, watched with shock & horror
i wasn’t born yet lmaooo until 2 years later
Really? Seriously? You think that *LAUGHTER* is an appropriate response?!! You...immaure... nope words fail me. - have you *watched* footage of that day - people choosing to leap to their death rather than be burned alive - the innocent people in those planes - in those building - the hero's that went into those buildings and never came out - the ones that did survive still suffering the lasting impacts of their bravery, their self sacrifice - grown hardened news reporters crying on air - you selfish, self centered, childish *CHILD* - the lives lost - the lived ones left behind - and your response is *LAUGHTER* ?!?!!! - *grow up*
I feel for your sorrow, I really do, but the Americans should stop thinking the WHOLE world changed with that act of terrorism. Nothing has changed for lots and lots of African and some Asian countries even to this day, where people suffer far more than first world people would assume.
Julia Connell they were laughing at the fact he was not born yet you ignorant ass
@@juliaconnell you need to calm down. Syria, Yemen, and so many other countries continue to get bombed like this everyday. Lmao doesn't necessarily mean you find something funny. I understand your distress but you don't have to go off then like that
He sacrificed his dreams for his country. How ironic.
Ok, patriotic, poetic, heroic, any of those things, ironic it’s not. It’s not irony, please look it up and try to use it properly. :)
@@jamesbeyer yeah, its really sad actually
@@jamesbeyer think he’s referring to the fact it’s ironic as the terrorists also sacrificed their dreams for their country...
@@georgemc6441 the terrorists didn't sacrifice their dreams for their country.
@@georgemc6441 that’s a stretch.
I remember when the trade centers went down I was in Kindergarten. I didn't really understand the impact of what happened back then but anytime I see something or interviews from 9/11 it puts a pit in my stomach. This is so well done it actually brought me to tears. It breaks my heart what the unnamed man went through but he was a hero. I hope wherever he is he's living a good life and he knows what he did was amazing in the end.
Well, that's a story I didn't know.
Right? Me too. That baggage handler saved a lot of lives and for him to speak up proved his character in the long run.
I feel more sad as it happened in real life...and baggage handler lost the job😭❤️
The baggage handler lost the job, which was right, but he also has the unique knowledge that he did the right thing in the end.
I saw the second plane hit. Most of the rest of the day I was either crying or just numb. I remember that the church near my house was ringing their bells and I started praying for everyone on the planes, at the towers and at the pentagon.
the shay tribe maybe they were scared 🤷🏽♀️
@@mosthated7520 what's wrong with you like that person was traumatized they saw thousands of people died that day and you have the nerve to say that
@@trainboy-xi6rm honestly I have no idea what you’re talking about or what this is I don’t use this account account anymore and I must have said whatever like last year so...sorry for whatever you’re offended about

bro thats exactly how i'm watching this rn
Nah don't

RIP everyone that died and our hearts are with everyone one affected by this horrible time in our history.
Moment of silence for 9/11
😂😂😂😂🖕🏼
😂😂😂😂😂
Dont care
A moment of silence for the people killed over seas
@juju bone stop the cap
Excellence short film ex wants. Sometimes your name doesn't need to come up at all in order to be a hero. No matter what the circumstances behind it. We all still mourn for those up 911
True. So sincerely true. We will never forget.
Not me bruh
him at the end made me want to cry . this was amazing
"he doesn't matter"
that my boss right there!
18 and broke
Still can't believe it had been 19 years ago today💔
@CZcamsrs fan And dj too literally shut up
Still can’t believe another hasn’t happened almost 21 years later
That kid didn't have a lot of lines, but he is a great actor of expression and what he did say was wicked convincing. I was freaking out for him.
Coming up on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 I can't believe it's been 20 years with one of the most tragic days ever! This man is a true hero I really hope somewhere out there he knows this, to anyone who lost someone that day my heart goes out to you also of course all the firefighters, the volunteers the police everyone bless your hearts
My dad was in the WTC during the attack for work. When the first plane hit, he thought it was just the sounds of the city when he says he heard a voice say “it’s not a drill. Run.” He left his office after alerting his coworkers and boss and looked up to see the second plane hit. He called my mom and my grandma mother tell them he was alright and began to run to the docks to wait for a boat. His boat dropped him off coincidentally at his jobs emergency work station and ran inside to get back to work with other coworkers that caught up. He tells me that story every year and it still makes me cry knowing he saw that.
I’m so glad he got home safely to you.
The baggage handler was more interested in getting the 20 dollar bill then connecting the dot until it was to late.
I wasn’t born yet but watching all the 9/11 movies, news videos, and more showed me how tragic this day was and how it changed America.
And how it exposed a totally corrupt government and a compliant and equally corrupt media!
The world really ....
1:37 thought he was refueling
Yeah I thought he got jet fuel in his eyes. Not sure which would be worse.
can somebody thank Omeleto for the timing of this video? like seriously how smart can he be
I really miss the time our country pulled together in the face of a mass-casualty event back then. I wish we would do it now.

A huge thank you to the American Patriot named Joe Franek, that this film is based on. For your courage & for saving countless lives, thank you. You are officially one of my all time HEROs in every true sense of the word. Thank you for doing what NEEDED to be done, even when you knew it was going to be insane trouble for you. If more people were this selfless, we might actually have a chance to redeem this world.
JOE FRANEK....
A TRUE AMERICAN HERO.
Thank you for sharing his name. No other commenter seemed to know.
What lives did he save? I was a little distracted while watching, but I don't think he did anything but reveal the names.
Amazing bravery he’s a true hero 🥰
Bless him and his family 🙏🙏
I'm unsure if the script is authentic, but Mohamed Atta's luggage didn't make AA11 because he connected from Portland, ME. According to the actual baggage handlers, they closed the plane before Atta's suitcase made it. FAA regulations required the tarmac to be cleared ten minutes before departure.
Amy Sweeney called American Airlines and confirmed the identities of all hijackers before the flight crashed. It was forwarded to the FBI and the bags were searched that night.
The mount of anger inside of me when they just wouldn’t listen literally LITERALLY MADE ME CRY
Me too. I don't know if that part of the story is true but it looked anti-police.
I was 5 when 9/11 went down
I remember thinking I was watching a movie
Didn't find out until like very later on
that I was watching 9/11 and people killing themselves
And yet those in the US government still haven't answered for the crime and all that has come since.
But it sure did make them rich.
Hmm, on Sept 10, 2001 there was a Presidential Daily Briefing that warned of a hijacking, then there were 2 wars and no weapons of mass destruction found. Yet the people "in charge" kept their jobs. Funny (crazy, not ha ha) that is.
The crime?
Please elaborate, you mean the wars in the middle east, stopping isis and so forth, drone strikes and children locked up?
@@williamszy2827 He probably means the crime of killing 2300 people in order to be able to sell the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq to the American public. Those wars came to less than nothing besides killing thousands of American soldiers and uncounted others and making a few guys very rich.
@@carolusparvus Prove it
This really helps you understand what 911 was like, me not being alive
@UCebrmxwMNETFjlPonoZ0FEA no I know, but this helps I guess.
I do remember it and I can tell u it was horrific, watching the 1st tower then the 2nd come down was scary but as the day progressed and more and more info came in and then the Pentagon??? It was like watching and living a true nightmare. A feeling like no other and unexplainable.
He conquered his evil in last movement, that's what matter.
He lost job but he can sleep peacefully.
Well spoken
He won’t sleep peacefully knowing he didn’t kill the boston travellers at least I wouldn’t
@@lamboodabest I didn't get your sarcasm?
He got fired because he illegally went into a person's luggage, simple as that. He did a good job, but at the same time illegal. He is lucky he wasn't arrested.

suspended sentence & nothing more, Vincenzo
BUT I REMEMBER THIS HAPPENING WHILE I WAS GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL IN THE MORNING.. I WAS TERRIFIED TO GO TO SCHOOL BECAUSE I THOUGHT PLANES WERE GOING TO CRASH THERE. BUT THE ONE THING I REMEMBER VIVIDLY WERE THE PEOPLE JUMPING AND FALLING OUT OF THE BUILDINGS.

Well, as my uncle being a firefigheter level 9 floor jumper this brings back all the ptsd he`s had running through the streets because of the traffic and he just vividly remembers watching United 175 hitting the 2nd tower and his best friends yelling NO NO NO NOO then him and his friends just sprinted then got there and he got a call saying it was about to collapse and btw they closed the doors behind him and them so they all had to jump at the same time from the 9th floor and just book it and his best friend David had to stay back and hold up the plank to let them jump, man I just feel blessed that most of his friends and him made it out and this was only his 2nd year as a firefighter, and I was only 9 at the time my friends and I skipped school to go have a fun day our moms let us and we were planning to go to the world trade center to go to the top and look through the scopes and the skyline and I do remember seeing the 1st plane hit and that was it I cant remember anything else besides hearing people scream and just my friends and I looking back and seeing 175 hit then just running back to my friends Darrens house, wow just that was a day that changed everything and my friends and I were machine fanatics and we immediatly knew this was no accident
What a wonderful tribute to those lost on 9/11. I thought this was based on truth. I really salute all involved in the production of this film. Thank you so much.
They should recognize people like that. Instead of firing and putting us seekers down.
No, they need to increase their security. The man who is supposed to be putting luggage on the plan shouldnt be going through it.
Imagine that, knowing you saved alot of lives. I dont know if this story is based on something real but its a good short film, you make good content. Keep it up.
it is real. there was a note at the end. it's truly incredible isn't it
It is indeed real
Ahh, nice to see my hometown Boston in a omeletto short film.
Superb amazing story. He did the right thing no matter what.
This was excellent, the direction, acting, music, everything works, just superb. Thank You for telling this story.
This is particularly scary because I can imagine it playing out exactly like this
Can we take a minute to appreciate and acknowledge what terrific film/story analysis is done by Omeleto in the video descriptions? Not just this one, but in general.
Wow I'm blown by this short film. Now I look at life differently. Life is precious and we should cherish it always even in today's time. Thanks Omeleto for changing my outlook on life.
thank you Omletto, today the whole day in social media of like, follow, subscribe, you were the only person other than me who also still remembered 9/11.

This was very well done! Felt like I was watching a feature length film. Such a well done work! Great cinematography and acting!
The dude's acting is brilliant.
Awesome short. Today is my birthday too. So this was a treat to watch.
What year ?
Wow that is amazing this story is great and the boy he is a fighter give him respect because he saved at least a hundred people of those fallen and to the man himself I salute
That was amazingly told...so bitter sweet, a hero never acknowledged.
Your name recalls another bittersweet story related to planes no longer exists
This film is so massively underrated
How ironic! I am an AvGeek (super obsessed with anything airplanes and aviation), a 9/11 devotee , AND I'm from Boston! It's like this whole film was made for me to watch!
What does it mean to be a 9/11 devotee?
Mojean, your performance moved me greatly. Everybody needs to see this film. You are brilliant!
Thank you!!!
@@mojeanaria4384 Is your character a hero that saved lives or was a piece of fiction? Please let me know. It matters to me that we know the truth. I teared up watching this short and your character.

After watching this, I suddenly felt heavy.
No one wanted to listen to him at all. Oh boy did they regret that.
Been watching non-stop stuff from your channel. Its addicting lol
I’ll never forget my mom getting me from school and just crying the whole way home listening to the radio. Never Forget
Boi if they don't rehire him and give him so many promotions I swear, I'mma one star the airline.
"Franek" on the back of his shirtXD
It's amazing to think that one small bag of luggage was all it could've taken for plenty more people to die.
that one airplane worker looks like this crazy old man on the tv show happy
People should learn to *listen*
I'm glad this film was made because i had no idea about this. Its unfunny how those who deserve good rarely get it in life and just get trampled on and forgotten. I hope the baggage handler went on to live a good and contented life even without the acknowledgement he deserved. Such is life.
Fitting for the date.
Integrity... It comes on many forms in the most difficult of times...
Not all heroes wear capes, this is one of the more emotional ones
I was at work. One of my co-workers said his wife called him and told him a plane crashed into one of the towers. We all shook our heads. A little bit later, he got another call from his wife. She told him "No this is another one." We all just looked at each other. Nobody had to say anything. We knew.
