　　Volcanoes, earthquakes, and tornadoes all can cause enormous damage, and predicting where and when they will strike is of great importance. Volcanologist Dr. Marie Edmonds has devised sensors that monitor the underground activity of magma to better predict future eruptions on the Caribbean island of Monserrat, the site of the massive 1995 eruption captured for this film. Geophysicist Dr. Ross Stein studied the earthquake repair records in Istanbul's Hagia Sophia over the centuries to find clues about the history of earthquakes in Turkey. He discovers a pattern in quakes along the long North Anatolian Fault system, including the massively destructive quake at Izmit in 1999, and predicts the next earthquake just a few miles south of Istanbul. Dr. Joshua Wurman and his team chase tornados in trucks equipped with Doppler radar in an attempt to probe the interior of a tornado just as it is born.

　　以“三部曲”形式描绘美军占领后的伊拉克的社会实态。第一部以逊尼派居住区的少年为观察对象，第二部的视点则切换为什叶派的神职人员，第三部旨在展示库尔德牧人的生活境况。影片虽在返美后完成最终剪辑，但为保持原汁原味，完全留存了伊拉克的现场拾音。在此基础上辅以细腻的映像、巧妙的剪辑，高超的完成度叹为观止。难怪本作于年初的圣丹斯电影节纪录片竞赛部门连中三元——最佳导演、剪辑、摄影奖。
