Honor Flight is a documentary about a community coming together to show their thanks to living World War II veterans, before it’s too late. The volunteers race against the clock to fly every local WWII veteran to the WWII memorial in Washington, DC. The trips are called "Honor Flights" and for the all-but-forgotten veterans, who are in their late 80s and early 90s, it's often the first time they've been thanked and the last trip of their lives.
The film premiered this summer at Miller Park in Milwaukee in front of 28,000 people to break the world record for largest film screening in history. Our goal as the filmmakers is to raise national awareness for the Honor Flight cause and help inspire action through film. This winter we seek to empower local Honor Flight charity hubs to use the film as a tool to articulate their mission to generate support for future flights.
