Set against a backdrop of end-of-the-world predictions on May 22, 2011, this coming-of-age documentary is told from the perspective of a group of young people in Joplin, Missouri, as they encounter the extreme power of mother nature when a rare EF-5 monster mile-wide tornado hits their hometown, on high school graduation day.
In the fierce 200 mph winds of the twister, they discover the power of their resilience as they fight for survival – each with transformative stories spurred by their experiences of that day. This catastrophic event ravaged Joplin and yet it overcame, rebuilt, and became an enduring symbol of hope. The film features adrenaline-inducing real-life footage filmed by people in Joplin, taking us into the eye of the storm.
