The Burnt Half is a film that goes to the heart of a shattered community in the wake of the 2020 bushfires that destroyed two-thirds of this idyllic island, which was the jewel in the crown of South Australia and a global tourism icon.
The Burnt Half is a gripping, character-led, observational documentary about the impact of the devastating bushfires on Kangaroo Island in 2020, the fallout on the local community and the controversy surrounding whether or not two individuals could have put the fire out.—Official Summary
