This film was shot in a real attic in late May in Mississippi. Temperatures there climbed to 118 degrees. The sweat you see on screen is real. See more »
I had the pleasure of seeing this movie in the Rhode Island Film Festival it was an excellent portrayal of a family stuck in a crisis. The movie allowed viewers to see a different and new perspective of Hurricane Katrina, rather than see footage of the storm, the Director, and producers showed a psychological side of the storm. It reminded me a lot of the "Diary of Ann Frank," a book/movie that showed a different side of the holocaust without showing the concentration camps.
I look forward to seeing whether this movie become a feature length film.
If this movie is turned into a full feature film, I would like to see other stories of people who were stuck in hurricane Katrina without any rescue.
