“The Letter” an award-winning short film about mining

Getman Corporation is proud to present our latest collaboration: “The Letter,” an award-winning short film that delves into the heart of the mining world and the pivotal role our scalers play in keeping miners safe. In partnership with Michigan-based production company, Rhino, A Story Co, we bring you an artistic interpretation of true events. This film is not just about machinery; it’s about the courage and resilience of miners who face danger every day. “The Letter” follows the journey of a miner who escapes serious injury due to the robust design of our scaling equipment.
