What is the difference between development and progress?
This is the question I sought to explore in 2008 while participating in the Third World Newsreel Documentary Workshop and living in Prospect Heights, a Brooklyn neighborhood that is experiencing gentrification.
Synopsis: Community activists and residents of Prospect Heights (Brooklyn), expose the fears and hopes for their neighborhood, sending a local and universal message about the difference between development and progress.
This short documentary is a Third World Newsreel Workshop production directed by Nuala Cabral and produced by Jaisal Noor and Thanu Yakupitiyage.
