Burned to the Ground

Overview

The small village of Lytton in British Columbia hit the global media when it smashed Canada's highest temperature record in June 2021, at 49.6C. Two days later, a wildfire burned the entire village to the ground.

Through the stories of three residents we find a community searching for answers while relying on a collective spirit to heal
