An American Opera

Overview

Documentary - In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, a massive storm that devastated and nearly destroyed the city of New Orleans, the United States of America suffered the worst domestic animal crisis in its history. Tens of thousands of house pets were left to die in neighborhoods all across the region as owners were forced to evacuate without their pets. Officials, rescuers and adopters of animals worked through the devastation only to discover that not everyone was working toward the same goal. - Tom McPhee, Jane Garrison, Lamonte Chenevert
