It was 2013 and they stood near the finish line on a crisp April afternoon: Mothers and children, newlyweds, brothers, all cheering on friends and family who were running in the Boston Marathon. Then the unthinkable happened: Two bombs exploded, killing three people and wounding more than 250 others at the marathon in what the nation and the world would soon learn was a terrorist attack - on U.S. soil.

The documentary's first trailer premiered Friday, exclusively on People.
