An excellent wildfire fire team: the Granite Mountain Pioneer.
In a mountain fire rescue operation, 19 people were sacrificed and 1 survived.
There is no sensational plot, and no heroism. Just the stories of 20 ordinary people and their families.
Few movies are drawn from the wildfire fire department. This one made me understand the dangers of wildfire rescue⚠️ and there are too many uncontrollable factors, and also let me know that in addition to helicopters? Firefighting, there is also a professional team to develop fire prevention Line isolation tape. They need to manually burn down some trees and weeds when the wildfires come, so that the wildfires will be isolated. This is a job that competes with the speed of fire. This job is not only dangerous, but also requires very professional professional skills. Decision-making in emergencies is related to wind speed, temperature, wind direction...
The whole film took a long time to pave the way for the daily life of firefighters, the family, and the relationship between brothers. There are also sustenances and entanglements in everyone's heart, which is why they are willing to use their lives to persevere in this job.
The mountain of accident⛰️, there is a thousand-year-old tree. The team members took a group photo in front of the old tree before the start of construction. Generally, this kind of plot is to exaggerate the subsequent grief. The same is true in reality.
This group of people seems to be rough, but they are kind and warm in heart. They encourage and help each other from the team members, and they are making a separate line for this big tree. A group of real and lovely people. (Here is inexplicably good to cry)
However, they saved the tree. But he couldn't save himself. Because of the speed at which the fire spreads, coupled with the sudden change of wind direction. This made the teammates rush to the safe area and were surrounded by fire, which was a dilemma. The wildfires are too fierce, and the isolation is too late to do, and it is too late to do anything at this time.
One of the tasks in the training is to wear a fire cover during self-rescue. You need to cover your whole body in a fireproof bag for a short time, buy cold mud for your whole face, and if you can breathe, you can live. The isolation bag can prevent the high temperature of 500 degrees, but who would have thought that they encountered a high temperature of 2000 degrees this time?
The captain said when training new recruits, when the fire passes you, it is like 100 trains pass by you. One can imagine how painful those few minutes were. Although it was short-lived, the pain was also extreme.
In the end, the only survivor who survived the disaster because he was sent by the captain to watch the wind could feel his desperation. (In reality he has depression and PTSD)
The scene where 19 people were killed did not take a long time to render, and the team members did not have a plot of personal heroism. But there are two details that are key to the film's high score: Everyone keeps the newcomer in the middle while everyone puts on their shields. In the last moment of his life, he is a tough guy who is taking care of the newcomer. The other is, the captain said to the deputy captain, you also got into the protective bag. The captain was doing his duty until the end.
The entire film was cut for 5-6 minutes, and what was cut was the painful cries of the team members on the walkie-talkie.
At the end of the film, there are real photos of 20 team members. The youngest is 21 years old and the oldest is only 43 years old. All of them were arrogant and arrogant men with smiles. This is the tear-jerking part of the whole film.
The director did not portray American-style personal heroism, but instead expanded the trivial matters in the life and family of the team members with restraint. What he wants to say is that they are all ordinary people, and they all have people who love them and people who love them. They are not from Marvel. The character is just an ordinary person who sheds blood and tears.
Respect life and revere nature.
