About
You’ll likely connect with the urgent, human-focused rescue efforts and the pressure-filled dilemma of whether to stay or flee; Not for you if you prefer lighter, purely observational stories or want something closer in tone to The Cave or Burma VJ: Reporting from a Closed Country.
Pros: boots-on-the-ground urgency; unforgettable bravery; tense compassion | Cons: emotionally heavy subject; difficult viewing
