Believing Cann River out of harms way, 23 Victoria Police officers were sent to assist the local one man police station with setting up relief and recovery for surrounding townships. But a wildfire with a mind of its own meant that Cann River was suddenly surrounded by flames the moment they arrived.
The devastation of the bushfires in East Gippsland and the north east of Victoria made the summer of 2019/2020 an historic emergency response challenge for Victoria Police.
This story documents Cann River’s experience of the bushfire, and the ongoing relief and recovery that followed.
Filmed in November, 2020.
