The rural community of Seven Springs, North Carolina has a long history of survival. After being nearly destroyed during the Civil War, a fire swept through the town in the early 1920s almost wiping it out entirely.

More recently, hurricanes are pushing the already struggling small town to the brink of collapse, as severe flooding has left it virtually beyond repair.

Seven Springs’ demise would mean a loss of identity, culture, and community for those who still call it home. Fire & Flood paints a video portrait of this charming place and the community that is fighting to keep it afloat, against all odds.
