What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Michael Murphy and Cilista Eberle were producing a film about the rebirth of the Dew Drop Inn, a lounge and hotel in New Orleans. However, Hurricane Katrina destroyed all existing assets, including performances and photographs, that would have documented the venue's history. Consequently, the film's subject shifted from the grand reopening to the underlying history of the club, which involved the desegregation of New Orleans bars and restaurants.
