Editor, Sara Quinn, composer: Nick Jaina.Narrated by David Oyelowo.Elemental takes viewers on a journey with the top experts in the nation to better understand fire.

We visit fire labs where researchers torch entire houses to learn why some homes burn and others survive. We learn from Native Americans as they employ fire to benefit nature and increase community safety as they have for thousands of years.
