Filmmaker Justin (Michael Stahl-David) decides to explore life in a crime-plagued neighborhood in Brooklyn, N.Y., for his next project.

09/29/2011 An interesting idea with its heart in the right place, but the style is inappropriate for the gravity of the subject matter. The Project ultimately comes across looking stupid. See more 10/13/2010 If I was a documentary filmaker going to or even thinking about filming a subject in the hood, This movie would definitely have me thinking again See more 07/28/2010 Though the story relies a little too much on coincidence, the film has some interesting things to say regarding the relationship between the documentarian and their subject. The performances are all quite good and the direction builds as it goes along, allowing for some real tension to creep in. See more 02/29/2008 Directed by Piotrowicz. See more Read all reviews
