There was a bad hurricane in New Orleans 2005. It is the Hurricane Katrina. I think each residents of New Orleans can’t forget this disaster. American TV drama series Treme shows the begins three months after Hurricane Katrina where the residents of New Orleans, including musicians, chefs, Mardi Gras Indians, and other New Orleanians try to rebuild their lives, their homes and their unique culture in the aftermath of the 2005 hurricane. You can see more in treme DVD.
Antoine Batiste (Wendell Pierce): A trombonist, constantly hunting for his next gig, Antoine lives with the mother of his infant daughter. He rarely sees his two sons with his ex-wife LaDonna, in part because he has no car since the storm and must rely on cabs and public transportation. He is currently the frontman for his band, "Antoine Batiste and his Soul Apostles", and has a part-time job as an assistant music instructor at a local middle school.
LaDonna Batiste-Williams (Khandi Alexander): LaDonna owns and runs a tavern in New Orleans. She commutes between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, where her sons are living with her husband, a dentist. She is pressured by her husband to move to Baton Rouge, as she has no ties to New Orleans anymore. She previously took care of her elderly mother, who refused to leave the city when they were trying to locate LaDonna's younger brother David Maurice (Daymo), who went missing during the storm. I'm not from New Orleans. Only visited a couple of times, but the meld of cultures and history that has produced the uniqueness of New Orleans has always fascinated me and I greatly enjoy being smack in that city via these episodes.
