PYROTECHNIQUES
For most of us, the techniques that lie at the heart of every modern fireworks display have been shrouded in mystery. Until now… Meet the people who dedicate their lives to these spectacular explosives, including the Zambelli Family, who has been producing fireworks and major firework displays for nearly 140 years; the pyrotechnicians at the annual Pyrotechnic Guild of America convention in Fargo, ND; and the attendees at the extreme week-long Nevada art festival called Burning Man, culminating in a 50-foot effigy of a man that spews fireworks out of his head while his body burns, and 20,000 revelers dance at his feet. Premiered on TLC, USA.
Produced by Lionsgate (2000)
