Piece Description
Many communities in Southwest Lousiana are still piecing together their lives after Hurricana Rita ripped through in September 2005.

Residents there lost nearly everything, and they've banded together in their trailers, waiting for the slow rebuilding process to unfold. Independent producer Pauline Bartolone has the story.
