Trouble The Water is an award winning documentary that explores the physical and mental destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, LA and other areas of the South. Directed by Tia Lessin and Carl Deal (Farenheight 9/11 & Bowling for Columbine), it features Kimberly Rivers Roberts and Scott Roberts. It is an in-depth look at the before and after effects of the disaster, and about the highly publicized and controversial methods of recovery that our government took (or didn't take, rather) in the wake of the event. It's message and images are powerful; we can all remember the helplessness that was felt even by those not living in the South and with no connection to the South. Be ready to revisit that pain and gain a more detailed understanding of the severity of the situation. The trailer alone speaks to you and makes you truly wonder, who did more damage: the hurricane, or us?
Check out the trailer below:
The film opens in New York and LA August 22. If you don't live in the NYC or LA area, don't worry: It will be released nationwide soon after.
