Chapter 10
“Moving Home: Documentary Film and Other Remediations of Post-Katrina New Orleans,”
Janet Walker
Janet Walker draws on affect theory to analyze the emotional appeal of Katrina documentaries and their solemn contemplation of the voices of the dispossessed. Luisa Dantos’ Land of Opportunity serves as an example for a more optimistic film that productively reimagines and remediates community and space.
