In the immediate aftermath of a tragic event, nothing is the same in Lac Sabin, a sleepy nest in Quebec, Canada. Residents face physical, psychological and social upheavals. Fear, grief and incomprehension are the order of the day, while survivors and victims' families must try to come to terms with the irreparable consequences of what happened.
A whiff of Atom Egoyan's "The Sweet Hereafter" wafts through the six-part Canadian drama series, which focuses less on the immediate disaster , and more - following the title - on what comes after it. The result is the intricately knit psychogram of a small community confronted with the unimaginable and having to learn to grow from its aftermath.
