June 17, 1958. Nineteen men died when the six-lane Second Narrows Bridge fell 200 feet into the surging tide of Burrard Inlet during construction. Cameraman Peter Hall's magnificent colour film has never been seen. Until now .... His footage and the memories of the men whose lives were scarred that awful day are the core of this powerful story. Witness what happened for the first time.
