'Fly With Me'

Virtual Event
Wednesday, April 9 | 5:30 p.m. ET

Fly With Me, co-directed by Sarah Colt and Helen Dobrowski, tells the story of the pioneering young women who became flight attendants at a time when single women were unable to order a drink, eat alone in a restaurant, own a credit card or get a prescription for birth control. Featuring firsthand accounts, personal stories and a rich archival record, the film tells the lively and important but neglected history of the women who changed the world while flying it.

Join Jazmín Aguilera, Host, Senior Producer, and Staff Writer of The Boston Globe, and 'Fly With Me' Co-Directors Helen Dobrowski and Sarah Colt in a virtual discussion of the featured GlobeDocs film of the month, 'Fly With Me,' on Wednesday, April 9, at 5:30 p.m. ET.
