Catherine “Kya” Clark learns to fend for herself at an early age, living alone in a ramshackle house in a swamp close to the coastal town of Barkley Cove. Cruelly dubbed ‘The Marsh Girl’ by locals, Kya channels her fascination with wildlife into writing and illustrating a book. She is wooed by one of the most popular guys in town, Chase Andrews, in direct opposition to his mother. When Chase is found dead at the base of a rusty fire tower, the finger of suspicion points at Kya.

Brave men and women put their lives on the line to save the iconic building from collapse. Rush-hour Paris traffic hampers efforts to quickly shepherd personnel and equipment to the blaze. Heroics inside the cathedral contrast with events in surrounding streets over the course of 24 hours, ending at sunrise on April 16.

In 1988, young filmmaker Robert Weide wrote a letter to Indianapolis-born author Kurt Vonnegut, proposing an intimate documentary about the writer’s life. Over the years, the director and his literary idol formed a close bond that extended beyond their intended decades-in-the-making feature. The completed film paints a rich and vibrant portrait of the novelist and philosopher, blessed with a wealth of previously unseen footage.
