About This Movie

The documentary is raw, capturing the tension and heartbreak, but also moments of solidarity that emerge from crisis. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to sit with the town's pain and hope, which makes the emotional beats hit harder. There's a gritty realism to the interviews, and the use of practical effects, like archival footage, enhances the storytelling without feeling forced.
