Excellent documentary. After hurricane Katrina Charity Hospital of New Orleans did not reopen, despite rumors that it was clean and structurally sound and ready to provided needed health care to the indigents of New Orlans. The facility also played a crucial role in immediate care of severe trauma cases and of severe acute psychiatric problems. The rumors all proved to be true, and the motivation for not reopening Big Charity is well explored. Much footage of the hurricane and Charity Hospital at that time is presented; this footage has never before been seen by the typical New Orleans citizen. Very orderly presentation, which keeps the viewer's constant interest. Provides appropriate, but not excessive, amount of background material. The role of Big Charity in the spirit of the city is well explored. Many central figures are presented, but the film constantly gives the view of average New Orleans citizens and patients, and of workers from around the country who were involved with the clean up of Charity.
