ABOUT THE FILM:
Anthony has driven a school bus in Staten Island, New York for twenty-four years. His plans to retire suddenly grind to a halt when the Union (ATU 1181) goes on strike in response to a contract dispute with the City of New York.
The film follows Anthony and his fellow drivers to the picket line, where they find themselves battling harsh winter weather, a media blackout, Union politics and a Mayor who refuses to negotiate.

With a pledge from the mayoral candidates to revisit the job security issue, the drivers, matrons and mechanics of ATU 1181 return to work.

Preview Clips # 11 & 12

Today, starting at 11am, the City began to publicly announce the bids for school bus contracts.  We visited the Rally that was held in front of the School Construction Authority building in Long Island City.  They allowed around 200 people (in total) to appear at hushed reading of bids.



We spoke with some Matrons (Escorts) at Atlantic Express in Ridgewoods, Queens.
