Five years after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, the Who Dat Nation prevailed 31-17 over the Indianapolis Colts.

“This is the way we envisioned it,” Saints running back Reggie Bush said to the press. “From day one, I knew we had something special here. When I was drafted here and I took my first tour of New Orleans and I saw all the destruction, I knew that we could be part of something bigger than football.”

After raucous celebration and reborn hope spawned by an inspiring football season and Superbowl win, New Orleans marches on.  Take a closer look at the individuals to whom the Saints are dedicating their tremendous season.  Here is a candid and refreshing documentary on the aftermath of Katrina through the eyes, voices, and drawings of nineteen of the city’s children.
