Hope and Wire
"Hope and Wire", a television drama inspired by true events, first-hand accounts and employing actual newsreel footage, is set in the aftermath of the earthquakes that devastated Christchurch between 2010 and 2011, telling a universal story of family, hope and triumph against the odds.
