Explores Louisiana's protracted efforts to restore and protect its coastal marshes, nearly always with minimal regard for the people displaced by those efforts. As Craig Colten shows, the state's coastal restoration plan seeks to protect cities and industry but sacrifices the coastal dwellers who have occupied this perilous place for centuries.
