Faubourg Tremé: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans
Dawn Logsdon, Lolis Eric Elie
Categories: Feature
Average Rating:
Rated 0.0/5 Stars
My Rating:
Run time: 79 min.
Faubourg Tremé is a tale of hope, heartbreak and resiliency set in New Orleans’ most fascinating neighborhood. Shot largely before Hurricane Katrina and edited afterwards, the film is both celebratory and elegiac in tone. Faubourg Tremé is arguably the oldest black neighborhood in America, the birthplace of the Civil Rights movement in the South and the home of jazz. While the Tremé district was damaged when the levees broke, this is not another Katrina documentary. Every frame is a tribute to what African American communities have contributed even under the most hostile of conditions.. It is a film of such effortless intimacy, subtle glances and authentic details that only two native New Orleanians could have made it.

Winner: 2008 Golden Gate Award, San Francisco International Film Festival
