This is an incredible show - by bringing to life a series of thoroughly plausible events, it really acts as a wake-up call to this Country to think about our dependence on oil and how easily this balance could be upset. It also makes for thoroughly captivating viewing.
The film starts with a hurricane hitting Louisiana - you see the preparations, the storm hitting and the devastation that it leaves in its wake. This has dramatic and direct consequences and would have made us think on its own. However, the hurricane is only the first in a series of entirely plausible events which, taken together, have catastrophic consequences.
I had to keep reminding myself that the show was a drama rather than a factual documentary - the characters were all so real and it was so easy to identify with their plights. It all made for very sombre but thoroughly compelling viewing.
This film must be seen!
