| Summary |
"'The Storm' examines the first critical hours of local, state, and federal emergency response to Hurricane Katrina. Why were there so many bureaucratic and communication failures? Why did decades of disaster planning still leave New Orleans unprepared? FRONTLINE investigates the decisions made before Katrina and in the desperate moments when New Orleans devolved into chaos"--Container. |
