Katrina

1. Katrina - 6 mins
A recent visit by a filmmaker, shows us a glimpse of what life in New Orleans is like today.


2. Scott's Katrina Summary - 6 mins
TV is being monitored 24/7 by dedicated people looking for glimpses of the real world that slip through the matrix version of events - told to us so persistently by the corporate controlled media. I don't know if this began with 9/11 but it is certainly prevelant now, and many of these glimpses end up on great sites like Crooks and Liars, One Good Move, Truthout, and others.

Scott, a NZ filmmaker, has gathered many hours of such footage that was being furiously posted on the net as the events following Hurricane Katrina unfolded. He put this together into a six minute collage with a music score to connect the pieces, that together give an insight into the state of the US nation.
