Big Rock Burning

Documentary Short

A gripping documentary exploring the resilient spirit of Malibu's Big Rock community as they rebuild from the ashes of the devastating Palisades Fire, one of America's worst wildfires. Directed by Big Rock resident David Goldblum, the film captures the raw aftermath of a harrowing night when residents were left to fend for themselves after officials deemed the area too dangerous to enter. With no help coming, neighbors turned into first responders — some fighting back flames with garden hoses, others forced to flee through walls of fire.
