Ash Tuesday (also known as Beyond the Ashes) is a 2003 comedy drama film directed by Jim Hershleder, written by Tony Spiridakis, and starring Janeane Garofalo, Giancarlo Esposito, and Tony Goldwyn. The film is an ensemble piece about several New Yorkers coping with the effects of the September 11 attacks, and was one of the first films to incorporate the events of 9/11 into its story.[1]

The film had its world premiere at the 2003 Tribeca Festival.[2][3]
