Somerset: After the Floods
The Somerset Levels, known for their stunning beauty in Britain, faced a severe natural calamity in the winter of 2013. The village of Moorland was completely submerged by the floods. As water inundated their community, the villagers could only watch in despair as their homes and lives were swept away. This program chronicles their year-long journey to return home after the waters receded and the media spotlight faded. Despite their courageous demeanor, they faced harsh realities: insurance companies refused to compensate them, and construction delays stretched on for months. These challenges intensified their deep-seated frustration, believing the floods were human-induced, and fueled their persistent anxiety about what might happen if the waters were to rise again.
