Free Conscious Cinema Film Screening: When the Leeves Broke As the world watched in horror, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on August 29, 2005. Like many who watched the unfolding drama on television news, director Spike Lee was shocked not only by the scale of the disaster, but by the slow, inept and disorganized response of the emergency and recovery effort. Lee was moved to document this modern American tragedy, a morality play witnessed by people all around the world. The result is WHEN THE LEVEES BROKE: A REQUIEM IN FOUR ACTS. The film is structured in four acts, each dealing with a different aspect of the events that preceded and followed Katrina's catastrophic passage through New Orleans. Following the film on each night will be a hurricane preparedness course. This is a Family-Friendly event with a minimum age with an adult being 13. PLEASE REGISTER IN ADVANCE. Thursday, July 19th Parts I & IITIME: 8:30pm - 10:30pmMiami Beach Cinematheque, 512 Española Way
