British Columbian Filmmakers Tell the Story of the 2021 Lytton, BC Wildfire

Jun 21, 2023

A British Columbia-based production company Wallop Film has partnered with The Guardian to tell the story about the infamous 2021 Lytton, BC wildfire, in Burned To The Ground. A story that feels increasingly relevant right now as wildfires rage across Canada this summer, Burned To The Ground premiered on The Guardian on June 8, 2023. 

The town of Lytton, BC caught the attention of the world when it smashed Canada’s highest temperature ever recorded. Two days later, it had burned to the ground. Amidst the backdrop of the global climate story, the documentary tells the story of three people who show us the fragility of what we call “home” – and how the spirit of a place can live on through the people who share its story. 

“This story is a warning for us all about what we can expect if we don’t face the challenges of climate change head-on. In a way, this documentary is a universal story about the importance of protecting our planet – everyone’s ‘home’.”
– Co-Director, Martin Glegg
