En Corée du Sud, le ferry Sewol sombra le 16 Avril 2014 avec 476 passagers à son bord. La majorité des passagers furent pris au piège en respectant l'ordre du capitaine : "Restez dans vos cabines". Quelques minutes plus tard, le capitaine fuyait le ferry à bord d'un canot de sauvetage. Le bilan fût de 304 morts noyés, dont 250 étudiants du lycée Danwon qui était en voyage scolaire vers l'île Jeju. Bien que neuf corps soient encore dans le ferry, le gouvernement coréen à repousser toutes opérations indéfiniment. Le gouvernement de PARK Geun-Hye refusa de reconnaître sa responsabilité dans ce désastre, notamment au niveau des opérations de sauvetages. Certaines familles de victime vont jusqu'à affirmer que le gouvernement a sacrifié les passagers plutôt que de réellement les sauver.

The disaster occurred between 1 and 2 August 2008 and cost 11 lives. During the ascent of the summit a climber falls to his death in the Bottleneck. When three climbers try to collect the body one of them also falls to his death. These occurrences lead to a delay in the summit attempt that strands several climbers for the night above the Bottleneck, in the "deathzone" (above 8000 meters), due to a serac fall killing one more climber. The documentary takes a closer look at the more unknown happenings during the night and the next day leading to another eight deaths.

Interviewing leaders of animal organizations and volunteers who went to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, it is revealed that at the beginning, everyone had different ideas about how things should be done, but no one was willing to take charge because the problem was bigger than anyone could have imagined. The film champions the volunteers whose only concern was saving animals, unlike the animal organizations who were more concerned with the chain of command.
