This documentary really captures the sheer scale of destruction caused by the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. You feel the intensity of the event through its haunting visuals and the accounts of those who experienced it. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for a weighty examination of the aftermath—both the chaos and the resilience.
