Filmed across the West and narrated by Golden Globe and Emmy nominated actor David Oyelowo, Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire takes viewers on a journey with the top experts in the nation to better understand fire. The film follows the harrowing escape from Paradise, California as the town ignited from wind-driven embers and burned within a few hours of the fire's start. It then continues to the even more recent fires of the last two years, when Oregon, California, and Colorado suffered their worst wildfires in recorded history. Elemental includes voices of climate experts, Indigenous fire practitioners, and fire survivors, and asks us to reimagine our relationship with wildfire as we prepare for an increasingly hotter future. Film Director Trip Jennings has worked with National Geographic for over a decade. His films have won dozens of awards around the world.
