On November 8, 2018, tucked in the Sierra Nevada foothills, the picturesque town of Paradise would be changed forever. “The Camp Fire,” California’s deadliest and most destructive fire in history, killed 85 residents and displaced over 50,000 more, leaving the mostly-destroyed community in ashes.

As residents faced the damage to their lives, to their homes, and to more than 150,000 acres in and around their 141-year-old town, they did something amazing: They worked together to heal. While coping with trauma and grieving their loved ones, they must wrestle with the logistics and bureaucracy of rebuilding their community. From the moment the crisis began, Oscar-winning director Ron Howard led a filmmaking team to the city and would go on to spend a year with Paradise residents, documenting their efforts to recover what was lost. A sincere portrait of humanity, REBUILDING PARADISE is a tribute of resilience in the face of uncertainty.
