Call of Duty



"...moving the entire dispatch center from one physical location to another physical location and not dropping one call, it was amazing."

Chalet Carroll
Area Ambulance Service


Overcoming Fear



"...when you were rescuing people, you were dealing with them one to one, you were looking right at them, and so dealing with that...with the fear in their eye, and knowing that they were leaving everything behind, that was probably the biggest, hardest thing to see."

Don Maas, Captain
Cedar Rapids Fire Department


The Best of Iowa



"...Having only lived in Iowa for 4 months...I hadn't really seen Iowa, a lot of Iowa, as I have shared with a lot of people, I saw Iowa that night. That was the best of Iowa - it was the people - that's what Iowa's about."


Greg Eyerly
Utilities Operations Manager, City of Cedar Rapids


The Human Capacity for Resilience



"...It's kind of hard to describe how your heart can break in one moment and start to heal the next."

Sister Susan O'Connor
Mercy Medical


Giving Back

MVP Video Production is a downtown business. We were located in the Cherry Building in the New Bohemia District, and were flood affected like many of our neighbors. Making films and telling stories is what we do. We believe in giving back to the community, and have done so in charitable contributions in the past. Now more than ever, this community needs support. This film is a way for us to give back to the community and tell some stories of the flood. 25% of the proceeds will be donated to downtown charities and organizations.
