Two documentary filmmakers set out to New Orleans right after Hurricane Katrina and started working immediately on a film about the disaster and the aftermath. They soon met Kimberly Roberts, an aspiring rapper and resident of the now flooded and destroyed Ninth Ward, and they find out that she not only stayed in the flooding Ward with her family during the storm and managed to survive, but she also grabbed a video camera and did her own documenting, getting footage of the neighborhood in the days leading up to the storm and some scary and all too real footage of the storm itself. They smartly made Kimberly and her family the focus of Trouble The Water, their very compelling and incisive film about Hurricane Katrina and the widespread effects of this historical natural disaster.
