Big Charity: The Death of America's Oldest Hospital

The curtain falls on Big Charity, America's oldest continuously operating hospital, as it says goodbye to its storied past in New Orleans.

Founded in 1736 as a small cottage, Charity Hospital evolved into a massive public institution, symbolizing compassion and hope in New Orleans for nearly 300 years. However, after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the iconic art deco building was abruptly closed, leaving the community to suffer from its absence. This documentary tells the story of Charity Hospital, featuring exclusive interviews and never-before-seen footage, from its humble beginnings to its controversial closure.
