PBS’s Frontline doesn’t shy away from tough topics. In “Maui’s Deadly Firestorm,” the acclaimed documentary series turns its unflinching gaze to the devastating wildfires that ravaged Maui. This isn’t just a recounting of events; it’s a deep dive into the systemic failures that transformed a natural disaster into a human tragedy.
From missed warnings to the impact of climate change and human alterations to the landscape, Frontline dissects the contributing factors with its trademark thoroughness. Expect a sobering look at not just what happened, but why — and what we can learn from this catastrophic event. If previous Frontline investigations are anything to go by, “Maui’s Deadly Firestorm” will spark crucial conversations long after the credits roll.
Frontline airs Tuesdays at 10/9c on PBS.
