The Other Side of the Hero takes us into that world of the first responder we rarely see: life out of uniform. Actor Enrico Colantoni, who played Sgt Greg Parker for five years on the international hit series Flashpoint, is our guide on this journey.
The film features first responders from across Canada and New York, as well as several actors who play first responders on television.
In the documentary, we get to know first responders through their families, their spouses, their
co-workers, and themselves; people who have experienced the flip-side of what can happen when a hero discovers that they are not emotionally immune to all that they deal with during their shifts.
The Other Side of the Hero is a new independent feature length documentary, produced by Enrico Colantoni, Diana Warmé, and Karen Shopsowitz and directed by Karen Shopsowitz.
