"WHEN THE LEVEES BROKE: A REQUIEM IN FOUR ACTS"
Watched the unfolding drama of Katrina on the news, director Spike Lee was shocked by the scale of the disaster and the slow and inept response of emergency recovery efforts.
He was moved to document this modern American tragedy, a morality play witnessed worldwide. Each hour long act deals with an aspect of the events that preceded and followed Katrina's passage through New Orleans. The film is an intimate portrait of New Orleans in the wake of the destruction, and tells heartbreaking personal stories of those who endured this harrowing ordeal and survived to tell of their misery, despair and triumph.
Donations welcome. No one turned away.
