LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A documentary about Paul McCartney's experiences in New York immediately after the September11 attacks on the city is to get its debut the day before the 10th anniversary of 9/11, U.S. cable network Showtime said on Tuesday.

Called "The Love We Make", the documentary chronicles the personal journey through a devastated New York in 2001, and the planning and preparation of a benefit concert six weeks afterward.

McCartney was on a plane on the tarmac in New York on the morning of September 11 2001 which was grounded when hijacked planes were flown into the World Trade Center towers. McCartney returned to the city and later helped to organize the "Concert for New York City."

Shot in black and white, the film features footage of McCartney rehearsing for the concert, clips of him talking with New Yorkers on the city streets and backstage film featuring David Bowie, Mick Jagger, former President Bill Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio and others.
