Set in the heart of rural Louisiana, LITTLE HOUSES
follows the faded Cajun burial custom of constructing wooden houses over graves.
The small community of Mermentau Cove, Louisiana
was once home to nearly forty gravehouses. Today,
only three houses remain. LITTLE HOUSES investigates the many theories behind why the structures were
built as they are considered for the National Register
of Historic Places.
The film features dialogue with top academics
and heartfelt stories from the locals who know
the houses best.
LITTLE HOUSES is a short documentary and features the original Cajun music of Lost Bayou Ramblers. The DVD is an artful "digipak" design, and features three bonus features as well as the feature film. Subtitles are provided in English and French.
