If you need your spirits lifted and/or you have lost your way then you absolutely need to watch this 84 minute documentary that provides the story of a real life tragedy when Operation Yellow Ribbon went into effect and the people from the tiny town (10,000 people) of Gander Newfoundland,Canada, showed what unselfish hospitality was truly like when terrorists struck the twin towers of New York City and the USA closed all of their airports.
The 10,000 people who reside in Gander welcomed with open arms and their purest love for the approximate 6,700 multi cultural passengers and flight crew(s) that literally fell out of the sky looking for a safe place to land, sleep and eat for the next few days while the tragedy of 9:11 in New York city was unfolding. You will hear the actual stories from both the survivors from all over the world whose planes landed in a place/country they had never heard or ever been in before called Gander, Newfoundland, Canada, as well as from many of the towns people of Gander Newfoundland, Canada.
This is an inspiring story that should be shown in all schools and church services as it truly shows the outpouring of kindness and care for our fellow mankind. A successful musical titled Come From Away made it to Broadway in 2017 and is still being shown today. It is an inspiring story filled with love and kindness out of the tragedy of 9:11 and so many lives that were tragically lost.
See it and you will also be touched and hopefully the world becomes a better place to live as a result in some small way due to the kindness of the people from Gander, Newfoundland, Canada.
A perfect 10 for 10 rating!
