Inside a small airport in central Maine, a group of senior citizens are making history by using handshakes and hugs to play a critical role in the Iraq war. The Way We Get By is an inspirational story about how these handshakes can change a person's life. Since March 2003, nearly one million soldiers and marines from across the country have been greeted at the Bangor International Airport. With each flight, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, these volunteers have been there to send them off and welcome them home. -- from thewaywegetbymovie.com

Friday, April 10th at 4:30 and 7:30 pm
Saturday, April 11th at 12:00 pm

I saw the trailer and got choked up. It looks like an amazing film honoring these three individuals and their associates who have dedicated so much time to show appreciation, love, compassion, and honor to our troops. I also understand that it is being recognized at many independent festivals, too. Warren Cook and Bangor Savings Bank are to be commended for their hard work and investment on having this film made. And, to the filmmaker, Aron Gaudet, who has put his creative energy into this remarkable film.
