FilmCatcher spoke with Tia Lessin and Carl Deal at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival about their film which garnered the Grand Jury Prize for Best Documentary. The directors discuss why they scrapped their original film project after meeting the Roberts, how documentarians should abandon the idea of keeping a distance form their subjects, and why Trouble the Water is not a Katrina story, per se.
