Web Series Promotes Learning, Remembering, and Healing


Midway Pictures, in Partnership with Tyco, have released the first episode in a new seven-part documentary web series, "The Station." The first episode premiered Wednesday on the 10th anniversary of the 2003 Station nightclub fire, the fourth deadliest fire in the nation's history. 

"The Station" tells the stories of individuals directly affected by the tragedy, including survivors, family members of individuals who perished in the fire, first responders and hospital specialists who treated burn victims.

According to "The Station" director David Bettencourt, the purpose of the project is captured by its straightforward tagline: "Learn. Remember. Heal."

The episode is available for free on the project's website, www.thestationmovie.com, and YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/TheStationWebSeries. Subsequent episodes will be posted every Wednesday through April 3rd.
