درباره این فیلم

From Executive Producer Denis Leary, Burn is an action-packed feature-length documentary capturing a year in the life of Detroit firefighters at the busiest fire department in the United States. Firefighters have an up-close view of the best and worst in any city. This is especially true for Detroit. Detroit is a picture of the future of American industrial cities in a post-industrial age: One foot in a prosperous past, with an uncertain next act, struggling to survive in a changing economy. Since 1950, racial tensions and vanishing industry have cut Detroit's population in half from 1.8 million, making it a housing market horror story and leaving behind 80,000 abandoned homes. And in Detroit, social problems manifest themselves in one way - fire. The result is a dying city with one of the highest arson rates in the world. Los Angeles, a city of 4 million people, sees 11 structure fires per day. Compare that to Detroit, which has 713,000 residents and 30 structure fires a day. Burn follows the crew of Engine Company 50 - one of the busiest firehouses in America. Located on Detroit's blighted east side, E50 stands at ground zero of the city's problems. Every day, these firefighters face injury, disablement, and death. But they come back, day after day, resolved to make a difference. They're certainly not here for the money - their starting salary is $30,000 and they haven't seen a raise in 10 years. Burn tells the story of these exceptional individuals who, despite the challenges and dysfunction, believe in their city and are attempting to make a difference every day.
