The Day California Burned

BBC Two

The film contains moving interviews with the firemen, police and survivors who came face to face with the fire. Nichole Jolly was a nurse at the local hospital who evacuated her patients before finding herself trapped in the middle of the fire.

As the town tried to evacuate, 21-year-old Jordan Huff got stuck in a traffic jam along with thousands of others. The fire killed 85 people and has left many asking questions about why the fire started and how climate change is contributing to making fires bigger and more frequent.
