the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS)
Attending a movie premiere is
an exciting event that everybody should experience at least once. Often
there are high-intensity searchlights spinning in the night sky. Movie
stars dressed in tuxedos and evening gowns (or 'Alaska Attire') arrive
in stretch limousines in front of the theater, to the applause of an
adoring crowd. Media and paparazzi, with microphone in hand, interview the celebrities
going inside to watch the film.
Movie premieres not only
bring out the stars of the film, but also draw an audience comprised of
film and entertainment industry leaders, otherwise known as people "in
the biz". Premiere after parties are usually very elaborate affairs
right near the premiere location and are decorated in the theme of the
movie. For this Gala Special Screening, invitations are extended
to:

About the the movie Big
Miracle
Inspired by the true story that captured the hearts of people across the
world, the rescue adventure Big Miracle tells the amazing tale of a
small town news reporter (John Krasinski) and an animal-loving volunteer
(Drew Barrymore) who are joined by rival world superpowers to save a
family of majestic gray whales trapped by rapidly forming ice in the
Arctic Circle.
Local newsman Adam Carlson (Krasinski) can’t wait to escape the northern
tip of Alaska for a bigger market. But just when the story of his career
breaks, the world comes chasing it, too. With an oil tycoon, heads of
state and hungry journalists descending upon the frigid outpost, the one
who worries Adam the most is Rachel Kramer (Barrymore). Not only is she
an outspoken environmentalist, she’s also his ex-girlfriend.
With time running out, Rachel and Adam must rally an unlikely coalition
of Inuit natives, oil companies and Russian and American military to set
aside their differences and free the whales. As the world’s attention
turns to the top of the globe, saving these endangered animals becomes a
shared cause for nations entrenched against one another and leads to a
momentary thaw in the Cold War.
