Film/Documentary
When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts
HBO (documentary)
Director: Spike Lee
August 16, 2006
In August 2005, the American city of
New Orleans was struck by the powerful
Hurricane Katrina. Although the storm was
damaging by itself, that was not the true
disaster. That happened when the city’s
flooding safeguards like levees failed and
put most of the city, which is largely below
sea level, underwater. This film covers that
disastrous series of events that devastated
the city and its people. Furthermore,
the gross incompetence of the various
governments and the powerful from the
local to the federal level is examined to
show how the poor and underprivileged of
New Orleans were mistreated in this grand
calamity and still ignored today.

If God is Willing & Da Creek Don't Rise
HBO (documentary)
Director: Spike Lee
August, 2010
Five years later, Spike Lee returns to New Orleans, to see how the ambitious plans to reinvent the Crescent City were playing out. He finds a patchwork of hope and heartache just as a new disaster unfolds. The four-hour documentary is a continuation of the heart-rending story of destruction and rebirth of America's most unique city.
