Martin Guigui's 9/11 opens in theatres today, nearly sixteen years after the tragic events it dramatizes. The film, starring Charlie Sheen, Whoopi Goldberg, Luis Guzman, and Gina Gershon, centers on a group of strangers trapped in a World Trade Center elevator during the September 11th, 2001 attacks.
It was a day that changed the world forever, in ways that we immediately (and rightly) think of as negative. But 9/11 also brought out the best in people across the world--through charity, activism, art, and a greater awareness of global affairs.
In the spirit of remembering not only that darkest of days but also the lessons we've learned from it, Kicking the Seat has teamed with Tether Group to bring you the "Never Forget" Contest.
