Roy Khalil's compelling and moving film portrays the profound and long-lasting psychological effects of the fire which broke out in the Grenfell Tower building in West London on 14.06.17
The fire raged and the lives of 72 residents were lost and 70 more injured before the fire was finally brought under control in the early hours of 15.06.17
The Firefighter particularly focusses upon the shattering emotional impact of the fire upon Ricky Nuttall; a fire officer attending from Battersea Fire station, who witnessed some of the deaths and injuries. His witness statement to the Grenfell Fire Enquiry runs to over twenty A4 pages
Ricky's account of 14th June 2017 in the film is in the form of an elegaic poem which reflects his depair, grief and incredulous bewilderment at the events of that night.
Ths film is the companion to "Fire in Grenfell"; Brooke Colman's equally compelling film which tells the story of the awful emotional impact of the fire upon two survivors; female children Yousra and Johara whose relatives lives were among those 72 lives lost in the fire.
The Enquiry into the fire reported in October 2019.
