Weaving together dozens of professional and amateur archival sources, along with dramatic interviews with the people behind the cameras, Witness: Joplin Tornado reconstructs the deadliest tornado in modern times, through the eyes of those who lived through it.

A husband-and-wife stormchasing team find themselves caught in the teeth of the storm, then pressed into service when it finally passes.
