Low and Behold, Left Behind by Katrina

In honor of the 10th Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, the award-winning feature film LOW AND BEHOLD will make its digital premier August 18th on iTunes through the support of the Sundance Institute #ArtistServices program.

Based on real events, LOW AND BEHOLD tells the story of a young insurance claim adjuster, in post-Katrina New Orleans, who risks his job to help a local man find his lost dog. Shot in New Orleans only months after Hurricane Katrina, this neorealist-inspired film blends fiction and non-fiction to tell the story of an unlikely friendship.

LOW AND BEHOLD was co-written and directed by Zack Godshall, whose other films include LORD BYRON and GOD’S ARCHITECTS. The film stars Barlow Jacobs (SHOTGUN STORIES, THE MASTER) who also co-wrote the script with Godshall. Jared Moshe, Sarah Hendler and Jacobs produced.

The film was shot in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. It was the first film about the tragedy to be shot in New Orleans after the storm. It made its world premier at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, garnering rave reviews and going on to win numerous festival awards. Mike Miley, for The Huffington Post wrote, “LOW AND BEHOLD is a fantastic work of cinema, that's funny, heartbreaking, honest, and beautiful...”

Blindwall Pictures and Mama Bear Studios are excited to be partnering with the Sundance Institute #ArtistServices program for the digital premier of LOW AND BEHOLD on iTunes. The iTunes release will be followed by releases on Amazon Instant Video, Microsoft Xbox, Sony Entertainment Network, SundanceNOW, VUDU, YouTube.
