Excellent Movie
29 August 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

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.
