The city-dwellers subsequently developed many different coping strategies to help come to terms with what they witnessed that day. Filmmaker Nancy Savoca (DOGFIGHT) stumbled across female stand up comic Reno, and decided to make a film about her unique way of handling the events of 9/11. Reno infused humor into the sad events, and told a highly personal tale of what happened to her on that day. This stand up release offers her full performance, which is both moving and very funny in equal measures. Many firefighters and police officers have witnessed her act, using it as a cathartic way to deal with their own personal demons. Highly unique, this is a great way to experience the charms and talents of Reno. [More]
