Wade In The Water

In August 2006 I traveled to New Orleans for a week to work with two of my best friends, Gabe Nussbaum and Elizabeth Wood, on their documentary about a group of kids in the first school to re-open post Katrina. This weekend the film premiered and won the Audience Choice “New Orleans Rebirth” Award at the International Human Rights Film Festival! Jody and I went down to shoot a follow-up (and possible new ending) at the premiere.

Our visit conveniently coincided with the New Orleans Pirate Film Festival. Overheard conversation:

Local : Eat a d*ck, get out of our f*cking town!

Pirate: Shut your mouth.
