Plot
In this powerfully moving and unexpectedly humorous film, Joan, a New York City journalist, is called upon to help Nick, a fire captain, write a series of eulogies for the men he lost at the World Trade Center in the 9/11 tragedy. As the fireman begins to open up and work through his grief, the two form an unexpected bond and we rediscover the quiet heroism that informs all of our daily lives.
