"This year marks the 20th Anniversary of 9/11 though sometimes it seems like yesterday," states Donna Trinkoff, Amas Producing Director. "The City emerged from that tragedy with strength and resiliency. This story has such resonance for today and for all the despair and fear we are all going through during this time of Covid. Home Sweet Homeland gives us heart in knowing that we will come through this, as well."
