Leah Chase is part of a storied New Orleans restaurant family, and they're just bringing the famous Creole temple Dooky Chase back to life, while she lives just across the street in a FEMA trailer. She shows us both sides of her street. Dr. Ivor van Heerden is the deputy director of the LSU Hurricane Center. He takes us on a boat trip across the lake from New Orleans to make clear what went wrong two years ago, and to show us how the city can be saved from a repeat disaster. Phillip Manuel is a New Orleans native, a singer and writer, who, while his city was being destroyed by water, found his peace of mind in gazing at water: he shows us his muse, the Mississippi. David Torkanowsky, a prominent New Orleans pianist and composer, retraces the steps of his "vertical evacuation" two years ago, to a high floor in a French Quarter hotel.
