The New Yorker
A New Yorker short documentary about the 2014 sinking of the Sewol ferry in South Korea, based on the film In the Absence. It examines the failures in the rescue and the political aftermath.
HN mostly cites it as an example of institutional failure and deference to hierarchy during a disaster.
