On September 11, the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, producers of the new Bell Media Original Documentary YOU ARE HERE: A COME FROM AWAY STORY hosted a screening at Toronto’s Isabel Bader Theatre in tandem with the film’s world television premiere on HBO Canada and CraveTV. The feature-length documentary, now streaming on CraveTV, goes beyond the award-winning musical to tell the real story of how Gander, Newfoundland welcomed thousands of ‘Come From Aways’ on September 11, 2001.

(L to R: Peter Gentile, Bill House, Moze Mossanen) Director Moze Mossanen, producer Peter Gentile, and executive producer Bill House welcomed hundreds of guests to the event, including Canadian screen legend Gordon Pinsent, and some of the real-life passengers who landed in Newfoundland that day such as: Nick and Diane Marson, a couple who met, fell in love, and ultimately honeymooned in Gander; U.S. businessman Kevin Tuerff who was so touched by his hosts’ generosity that he went on to create the Pay It Forward 9/11 initiative; and Kevin’s former partner Kevin Jung who’s also become more involved in volunteerism since then.
