The Call: A Portrait of America's Volunteer Fire Service

There’s a fire. You call for help. Who answers?
The vast majority of Americans live in places that don’t have a single firefighter on the payroll. “The Call” is a portrait of the volunteer fire service that steps up to answer this critical need, told in the unique voice of an animator who is also a volunteer firefighter.
