JFK: One Day in America release date, trailer and everything we know (1)

To commemorate the 60th anniversary of one of the most shocking events in US history, JFK: One Day in America is re-telling the well-known events of Friday, November 22, 1963, but through a brand-new lens.

This new documentary uses archival footage, newly remastered and colorized videos and brand-new interviews with surviving eyewitnesses from the fateful day in order to tell the human story of the event. There are no conspiracy theories or geopolitical overviews here; it's a look at the emotions and human impact of the event.

Following on the heels of the first One Day in America series, about 9/11, this should be an interesting watch for those who are well aware of the events of November 22, as well as people who aren't as clued-up.

If you're interested in the new Nat Geo doc, here's everything you need to know about JFK: One Day in America.

JFK: One Day in America episodes

There are set to be three episodes of JFK: One Day in America. The first is called "Assassination" and you can probably guess what this one centers on: it follows what happened to JFK's motorcade with John and Jackie Kennedy when it's attacked in downtown Dallas.

Next up is "Manhunt" which depicts the hunt for JFK's assassin, which involved the death of a policeman, as well as the actions of Jackie Kennedy immediately after the event.

Finally there's "Revenge", which follows Lee Harvey Oswald as he's charged with the killing and is then killed himself in a vigilante attack. It also explores Jackie Kennedy's funeral march for JFK, and also the implications of this chain of events on American history as a whole.

Each episode is roughly an hour long.
