Women in billowing skirts floating to the ground with parachutes? Rich, glamorous ladies seeking publicity? Hardly, but this was the image that the popular press enjoyed painting of the first women pilots
ANYWHERE TO ANYWHERE is a musical documentary based on interviews with the women who flew the planes. It is about the difficulties they had in being accepted as pilots, the prejudice they suffered and the extreme physical hardships they endured.
But ANYWHERE TO ANYWHERE is also a celebration of the women who for the first time had access to exciting work, the pure exhilaration they experienced in flying different types of planes and the fact that they were trail blazers for those who were to come after them....
"The example set there will give other women a courage to do those things which they have not in the past considered open to them. "
