Project: Report takes over the Screening Room, enters final round
Wednesday, April 7, 2010
Project: Report
is an annual contest that celebrates some of the best work being done by aspiring journalists on YouTube. Journalism, like documentary filmmaking, is about telling the world's untold stories, which is why the
Screening Room
will be hosting a series of short docs offering a voice to those who might not otherwise be heard, starting with a new film from last year's Project: Report winner, Arturo Perez, Jr.
"
Jerusalem: War in My Land
" looks at the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as told through the eyes of a young Jew and a young Muslim.
"
Salim Baba
" tells the story of Salim Muhammad, who makes his living using a hand-cranked projector to screen discarded film scraps for the kids in his surrounding neighborhoods. It was nominated for the 2008 Academy Award for Best Documentary Short.
In "
One of the Last
", a 78-year-old Italian farmer picks olives, grapes, cherries, and wonders why anybody would want to do anything else.
After 23 brain surgeries and suffering a debilitating condition called hydrocephalus, 12 year-old Luke Casey has become a survivor who's gentle spirit and mature soul is an inspiration to everyone he meets in "
Bob Seger Rocks
".
Starting today, you also have the opportunity to watch the Round 2 submissions from each of the 10
Project: Report
semi-finalists and
vote
on your favorites.
Enjoy the films,
Nate Weinstein, Entertainment Marketing Associate, just watched "
Banksy's Exit Through the Gift Shop.
