All ticket proceeds from this documentary go to the Team Kentucky Emergency Relief Fund.

RISING tells the story of the strength and resilience of Eastern Kentuckians as they undertake the most ambitious rebuilding effort in the nation following the historic flooding that took place in the summer of 2022.

From devastation to hope, this story chronicles how an idea became a reality as state, federal, and local partners work to build survivors new homes on abandoned coal mine sites – out of the floodplains and protected from future floods. RISING shows the world what is possible and proves that, by working together, we can rise above any challenge.

RISING was produced with support from the Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet and the Cabinet for Economic Development.
