About This Movie

The Way We Get By, directed by Aron Gaudet, is a documentary that offers a unique glimpse into the lives of three incredible seniors who have dedicated themselves to welcoming U.S. troops at a small airport in Maine. It’s a gently paced film that captures the quiet resilience and warmth of these volunteers, whose commitment to service creates a profound sense of community. The atmosphere is both uplifting and emotional, as we witness their stories unfold, interwoven with the soldiers' experiences. The practical effects here are non-existent in the usual sense, but the real-life interactions and the raw honesty in their performances give the film an authenticity that's hard to shake off. It’s all about human connection in a time of need, and that’s what sets it apart.
