Description
Hurricane Gloria is headed for the United States, destined to land at Fire Island, New York, a narrow sandbar south of Long Island. 10 people refuse to evacuate and stay behind to care for the island's unique ecological environment. Jiler combines interviews with the natural history of the island to produce a panoramic account of nature in its inexplicable, sublime fury.
