"Rebirth": A Documentary of the Survival, Recovery and Resiliency
Description:
Project Rebirth's film, REBIRTH, is a full-length documentary that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January of 2011. It is the result of a decade-long process by director Jim Whitaker and is a riveting journey into living history. It is also an act of personal witness to one of the most profound events in American history and the healing that has come its wake. From early 2002 through 2009, the REBIRTH film crew chronicled the lives of five people directly affected by 9/11. Their narratives are the thread of recovery and resiliency from grief, loss and trauma that comprise the unique message of the film. REBIRTH also simultaneously tracks the evolution of the former WTC and the entire rebuilding of the site. You may learn more about the project and the film at: www.projectrebirth.org .
