What happens

03:34: Earthquake in Chile (Spanish: 03:34: Terremoto en Chile) is a 2011 Chilean film directed by Juan Pablo Ternicier and written by Mateo Iribarren. The film narrates three different stories based on the 2010 Chile earthquake. The movie premiered in Dichato, Biobío Region, on February 27, 2011, exactly one year after the catastrophe, and was released throughout the rest of Chile on March 3. The first teaser for "03:34" was released on January 17, 2011. Filming began in November 2010 in the same locations where the earthquake occurred, with the support of the National Council of Culture and the Arts and Carabineros de Chile, who helped with the recording in the affected zones. The movie had a budget of $1.4 million, and all profits from the movie were to be donated towards the construction of schools in the most affected coastal zones. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
