One of America's proudest achievements, their national infrastructure, is now its most dangerous embarrassment. Their bridges, dams, levees and highways are crumbling, toppling, being washed away, and putting American citizens and cities at risk. How could the most powerful nation on the planet let this happen? Narrated by Richard Dreyfuss and directed by Leslie Card, this film begins with an exploration of the little-known causes behind the levee failures post-Katrina, and uses this as a springboard to expose the rampant collusion, corruption and cronyism within the government agencies whose very purpose is to protect us.
