Trouble the Water
Skillfully interweaving ground-level footage of Katrina shot by New Orleanian Kimberly Roberts with the directors’ own footage of the ongoing efforts of Roberts and her husband to untangle FEMA red tape and rebuild their lives in Memphis, Trouble the Water shines on an individual journey that illuminates a tragedy that, on its actual scale, threatens to overwhelm our capacity to process it.
Executive producer Danny Glover, and directors Carl Deal and Tia Lessin scheduled to attend both screenings.

By Marc Mirucki
“A worthwhile trip through the disturbing events of Katrina, an honest film, even if on occasion not so subtly directing its viewers towards particular opinions (although those opinions will likely be welcomed and simply reinforce that of most Seattleites.)
It seems like the majority of the film”
