Amid the ruins of a great city, a group of musicians rise up to play songs of hope and rebirth. From the creator of the acclaimed HBO series The Wire comes this all-new series that takes place during the rebuilding of New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Treme is one of the city's oldest neighborhoods, an important center of African American and Creole culture, especially music. Season One begins three months after Katrina's devastation and highlights the role of the city in the interconnected personal stories of the musicians, teachers, restauranteurs, radio deejays, and community leaders who reside there. In the middle of the turmoil, a mother desperately searches for her son who disappeared during the hurricane.
