Michigan filmmaker Tom McPhee’s “An American Opera”
Documentary Filmmaker and Michigan Native Tom McPhee spent more than 3 years on this project to document the pet rescue in the wake of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
McPhee’s “Man Smiling Moving Pictures” is based in Ann Arbor, MI.
The award-winning film, titled “An American Opera” has made the rounds at other festivals and will play at the Waterfront Film Festival June 13th at 11:30am.
