Summary

This beautiful documentary takes viewers on a breathtaking tour of one of the most vibrant places in America: the Louisiana bayou and the city of New Orleans. Here, in the region's bountiful coastal wetlands, alligators, humans and other wildlife have lived in harmony for centuries. Experience a place overflowing with life, love, music, natural beauty-and hurricanes. Narrated by Meryl Streep, Hurricane on the Bayou offers a sweeping portrayal of one of the most powerful hurricanes of all time – Hurricane Katrina – and how wildlife and citizens came together after the tragedy to begin a period of rebuilding. Featuring New Orleans music legends Allen Toussaint, Dr. John, Tab Benoit, Chubby Carrier and Amanda Shaw.
