From The Ground Up: 10 Years After 9/11 - Free Community Event at JBFC

From The Ground Up: 10 Years After 9/11
Thu, September 8  7:15

On Sept. 11, 2001, 343 New York City firefighters died in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. Most were husbands. From the Ground Up is the story of their widows, forced to mourn their losses and attempt to make sense of the madness while the world watched. Focusing on five brave women—including Pleasantville resident Andrea Garbarini—the film shows us how they emerged from grief to make a difference in the world. Beth and George Gage. 2011. 31 m. NR. USA.

Q&A w/ executive producer/subject Andrea DeGeorge Garbarini, filmmakers George & Beth Gage and JBFC Executive Director Steve Apkon.

This event is free and open to the public. To reserve seats, email specialevents@burnsfilmcenter.org or call Jack Railton at 914.773.7663, ext. 431.
