Katrina: Come Hell and High Water | Sneak Peek - Netflix

This is the story of a brutal coastal hurricane turned cataclysm through human error and neglect. Over the course of a gripping and emotional three episodes, the people of New Orleans recount their past, lay bare their present and lean into the future of what they and their beloved city survived and have become 20 years later. The series sets the stage for a tragedy - whose man-made elements expose the systemic governmental neglect that led to the city being defenseless in the face of the storm - and Katrina’s devastating impact that irreparably changed New Orleans. Detailed, harrowing and triumphant first-person accounts and never-before-seen archive footage illustrate the magnitude of Katrina, the aftermath of the levees breaking and the bungled recovery. From executive producer Spike Lee and the team that brought you the Emmy and Peabody award-winning series When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts, Katrina: Come Hell and High Water puts you in the eye of the storm and elucidates how that storm still rages 20 years later.
