In the summer of 2003, America experienced the largest blackout in its history - widely reported as peaceful. But in Brooklyn's forgotten East Flatbush neighborhood, mayhem unfolded when the power shut down. This is the untold story of the blackout - a place where, as night fell, looters emerged, violence surfaced and residents feared for their lives. Some will find each other in the darkness, others will lose everything they have ever worked for, and East Flatbush will never forget the events of these two days.
