Hi Amnesty Atlanta, If you have the chance, you should make it out starting this Friday for a one week only showing of Trouble In the Water. AI partnered with the filmmakers to premier this film in New Orleans just last weekend. It is said to be quite a good film, dealing with the human rights response Katrina. Thanks! Trouble the Water - film screening (Topic: Hurricane Katrina) Starts Friday, August 29 One Week Only! Midtown Arts Cinema Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, this astonishingly powerful documentary takes you inside Hurricane Katrina in a way never before seen on screen. Incorporating remarkable home video footage shot by Kimberly Rivers Roberts—an aspiring rap artist trapped with her husband in the 9th Ward—Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine producers Tia Lessin and Carl Deal weave this insider's view of Katrina with a devastating portrait of the hurricane's aftermath. Trouble the Water is a redemptive tale of self- described street hustlers who become heroes—two unforgettable people who survive the storm and then seize a chance for a new beginning.
