New York filmmaker Alison Thompson describes her experiences after traveling to Sri Lanka in the wake of the devastating tsunami in 2004 where she spent fourteen months as a volunteer, caring for the injured, handing out food and water, and helping rebuild a coastal town, and discusses her other volunteer work at Ground Zero after 9/11 and in earthquake-ravaged Haiti.
