Lahaina Rising 2025

Directed by Matt Schweitzer · Documentary · 92 min

An island burns. A community rises.

This film is a searing yet hopeful documentary chronicling the devastation and resilience surrounding the August 8, 2023 wildfire that tore through the historic town of Lāhainā, Maui—the deadliest U.S. wildfire in over a century. With over 13,000 residents displaced and an entire town reduced to ashes, the film captures both the staggering loss and the community's unbreakable spirit.
