Led by award winning filmmakers and technicians, and scored by some of the music industry’s finest talents, "Bayou" illuminates the horror and the humanity that has come to symbolize Hurricane Katrina.
Our cameras followed two families from different backgrounds, but united by one thing: they were put on a plane and sent to a place where the culture was in direct contrast to their own. It is a fish out of water story-a story of resurrection, rebirth, of human beings helping one another and overcoming incredible odds. We didn’t follow convention-we didn’t impulsively go to New Orleans and collect the exact same footage that would soon be available through any news outlet.
Instead, we went 1900 miles west and told a story that at first seemed to be a simple human-interest story lost on page six between the crime blotter, and the Mattress Warehouse 1/2 page sale advertisement! What we found was much more dynamic than any of us could have imagined. With only four days of preproduction, we arrived in Utah just days after the storm. We were forced to make this film solely on instinct, letting the story take us where it wanted us to go, instead of manufacturing an outcome. The resulting movie is well past “News”. Rather, it is unadulterated humanity played out against the backdrop of religion, politics, race, and two peoples forced together by a storm yet connected forever by necessity.
