You Are Here: A Come From Away Story

Such a wonderful documentary. The kindness of strangers. It was amazing to see how the community came together to help these people. Plane after plane landing it was heartbreaking to watch. Out of darkness comes light. Makes me proud to be a Canadian. A must watch.

Having been to Newfoundland I can attest to how wonderful the people are. Made me proud to be Canadian.

"You Are Here" is a feature documentary that focuses on the actual people who were the inspiration for the worldwide hit musical, "Come From Away". It does not intend to exclude any individual due to their colour or ethnicity. Rather, it goes to great lengths to show how the kindness and generosity of a community - which is by reality almost entirely Irish-Canadian - rescued almost 7,000 passengers from around the world when their planes were forced to land in Gander during 9/11. These values of compassion, honour and respect are celebrated in the film and shines a light on the greatness and openness of spirit that is inherent in Newfoundland culture.

Heartwarming documentary highlights a different perspective on 9/11 by offering a sincere portrait of Newfoundlanders who opened their town & their hearts to thousands of stranded airline passengers.

This is a story deserved of telling. Beautiful representation of Newfie culture and the efforts put in to supporting 6000 people displaced To the most random seeming place in Canada, during the suspension of air travel during 9/11. Beautiful stories. This is the message we need to perpetuate. As Mr Rogers say: 'look for the helpers'
