At the end of August 2005, Hurricane Katrina slammed into the Louisiana and Mississippi coasts devastating over 90,000 square miles and causing $120 billion in damage. 2000 miles away, a group of volunteers emerged from an event in the Nevada desert. Well suited for helping in a harsh environment where the normal infrastructure had washed away, the group that converged in Biloxi and Pearlington, Mississippi, had one thing in common: "Burning Man" - a festival held each year in the Nevada desert where all sorts of art is constructed and displayed.

The unlikely group had in common the shared experience of collaborating and building in harsh environments and the strongly held belief that when people need help, you help them. This film follows the group of volunteers over the seven months of work following the storm, and it features interviews with both volunteers and residents. (56 minutes, 2009)
