A Documentary by Will Heiss
Journey back in time and witness the rise of "America's Most Interesting City".
On May 7, 1718, French explorer Bienville founded La Nouvelle-Orleans (New Orleans) in honor of the Duke of Orleans.
Napoleon sold Louisiana to America via the Louisiana Purchase (1803). Since then, Mardi Gras has become synonymous with "The City That Care Forgot". Art mirrors life with tragedy and pain.
New Orleans is known for both, the Vieux Carre fire (1788), the Battle of New Orleans (1815), and Hurricane Katrina (2005). From this pain comes inspiration.
