Tonight at 9p on USA The Space Between is a movie about 9/11, but it is a different take on what happened that day and the days afterwards. A 10 year old Pakistan boy is leaving his dad in NY and flying to school in LA. Sounds normal enough, but he is doing it the morning of 9/11. A problematic stewardess is responsible for him and when their plane is grounded, she now needs to take care of him. The boy watches in horror as we all did as the buildings collapsed and he tells his temporary guardian that his father worked in the restaurant on the top floor at the WTC. Now she is doing everything she can to get him to his dad, in a time when transportation has been pretty much halted. What will be waiting for both of them when they get back to NY? Tune into this movie that shows what two people went through during that week that changed us all forever.
Today where we are looking at what happened 10 years ago this movie is a different way to remember it. I know I felt a connection with the film because the person who I knew that died that day in the Twin Towers, had a breakfast meeting at that restaurant at the top of the building and never made it down.
