Trouble the Water Opens in Des Moines Friday, October 10
The award-winning documentary Trouble the Water opens this Friday, October 10th, at The Fleur Cinema in Des Moines.The film tells an extraordinary story of one family's survival of the flooding of New Orleans after the levees broke, and their journey into a new life. Time Magazine's Richard Corliss called it “an endlessly moving, artlessly magnificent tribute to people the government didn't think worth saving.” And Manohla Dargis of The New York Times called it “…one of the best American documentaries in recent memory.”
Directed and produced by Fahrenheit 9/11 producers Tia Lessin and Carl Deal and executive produced by Danny Glover, Trouble the Water won the 2008 Sundance Grand Jury Prize.
