Staffel 4

Drei Jahre nach dem verheerenden Hurrikan Katrina schöpfen die Einwohner New Orleans neue Hoffnung: Barack Obama wird zum Präsidenten gewählt und verspricht einen Neuanfang. Genau darum kämpfen die Bewohner des Viertels Tremé täglich selbst – doch die von Korruption, Armut und Gewalt geplagte Stadt macht es ihnen nicht leicht. – Von den „The Wire“-Machern: die vierte Staffel der grandios besetzten und mit einem beeindruckenden Soundtrack unterlegten HBO-Serie um die Jazz-Metropole und ihre eigenwilligen Einwohner.
