A Shocking Reminder
Part 1 (1x1)
:
The first installment of this two-part documentary chronicles the effects of Christchurch’s September 2010 earthquake on various everyday people. They have seen damage to their city that they would never have imagined — houses have been destroyed, liquefaction has entered their vocabulary, and the ground beneath their feet can no longer be trusted. Miraculously, there has been no loss of life. As seismologists seek to understand what happened, the interviewees tentatively rebuild disrupted lives, but the fatal quakes of the 22nd of February cruelly derail that recovery.
