This episode explores the story of recovery in Mallacoota after the Black Summer bushfires of 2019-2020. From a town divided for decades, we watch as the community of Mallacoota learns to step up, collaborate and develop a recovery plan that prioritises the environment and making sure no one is left behind. We also learn of the many ways the system thwarts community ambitions, and demands much in return for a community’s chance to lead their own recovery.
