KATRINA'S CHILDREN is a multi-faceted portrait of nineteen children, ages 5 through 13, from different neighborhoods of New Orleans. Told entirely from their point of view, the film captures with vivid poignancy the tragic ramifications of the greatest man made and natural disaster in modern American History.The film shifts between past and present, weaving the children's thoughts on Katrina with "verite-style" scenes of their everyday life as well as their artwork. We have animated several of their drawings, magically bringing to life their interior universe. Aching with sadness, yet grounded in hope, KATRINA'S CHILDREN is ultimately a celebration of children's extraordinary power of resilience and a tribute to New Orleans' unique and indomitable spirit.
