BVI STRONGER

BVI Stronger is a 10-part original documentary about resilience and recovery created to bring critical awareness to the recovery process and relief efforts following the devastating natural disasters in 2017.
The web-series showcases one nation overcoming insurmountable odds to become better on the other side of the storm, telling the story of how the British Virgin Islands recovered from the worst two hurricanes to ever touch land in the Atlantic - Hurricanes Irma and Maria.

To get through the storm.. you have to be strong, but to overcome the storm… you have to be STRONGER.

Ever imagined yourself in a category 5 hurricane? Standing in your home, clasping to your loved ones as 185 mph winds howl past you. Life here is very simple. You live, or you die. No compromises, no second chances. This is a place where every ragged breath is an accomplishment. You stand in terror as your house crumbles around you.

Just as the people of the British Virgin Islands thought the situation couldn’t get any worse, another category 5 hurricane took aim. With 80% of buildings severely damaged, out of time and with no supplies, watch how one country pulls together to prepare for a storm that rivals Irma.

How does devastation turn into opportunity? After Irma decimated the BVI, those who lost much, were called to give even more. With no clear answers or direction, the people of the BVI had to rise above the storm to unite a nation. In the Genesis of a Plan, you'll see how we plan to rebuild stronger, smarter, greener and better than before.

You can make a difference. But you need the will to recover. The strength to turn adversity into opportunity. Watch Episode 5 to see how ordinary people stepped up in their darkest hour to rebuild the British Virgin Islands... (and how you can too) Want to help rebuild BVI? Go to BVIStronger.
