In part 1, Feike and Noelle van Dijk\\u2019s sense of normalcy is shattered when a home fire killed two of their children in 2014. Three years after the incident, the family gives a rarely seen look at the lingering effects of American home fires, which claim seven people each day and injure 13,000 yearly. What\\u2019s discovered during a trip to their hometown is a family reminiscent of the past, but changed by their loss.
