Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, Trouble the Water is directed and produced by Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine producers Tia Lessin and Carl Deal. The film tells the story of an aspiring rap artist and her streetwise husband, trapped in New Orleans by deadly floodwaters, who survive the storm and then seize a chance for a new beginning. It’s a redemptive tale of self-described street hustlers who become heroes that takes you inside Hurricane Katrina in a way never before seen on screen. Trouble the Water is a transformative story about passion, resilience and heroism among the poorest residents of America's most downtrodden city. Q&A following the screening with filmmakers Carl Deal & Tia Lessin. Tickets $10 – adults, $7 seniors and students. The Ojai Playhouse Theatre, 145 East Ojai Ave.
