Shattered
City, an epic three-hour production, dramatizes a compelling
piece of Canadian history. It is the story of how a tragic
incident at the height of the First World War became a living
metaphor for the worldwide conflict, and how Halifax arose
from the ashes after severe destruction and devastation. In
the early hours of December 6, 1917, the Mont-Blanc, a
French-owned freighter loaded to the gunnels with thousands of
tons of TNT, collided with a Belgian relief ship and exploded
in the Halifax Harbour. The explosion was so vast that it
killed more than 2,000 people, injured 9,000 more and
completely flattened two square kilometers of northern
Halifax. Out of the carnage came stories of small sacrifices
and great heroism - stories that are at the heart of Shattered
City!!
