Data de estreia: Jan 14, 2014

My Brooklyn: As a Brooklyn gentrifier, My Brooklyn director Kelly Anderson journeys to understand the forces reshaping her neighborhood. A bustling African-American and Caribbean commercial district, The Fulton Mall, is the third most profitable shopping area in New York City yet it is maligned for its inability to appeal to the affluent residents who have come to live around it. Fate of a Salesman In its 60th year of business, Men’s Fashion Center in Washington, D.C. is at the brink of closure, up against a difficult economy and rapidly gentrifying neighborhood. Salesman Willie Carswell, a Vietnam veteran and recovering alcoholic, is confronted with the fight of his life as he, owner Jerry and his fellow salesmen attempt to keep the doors of the store open.
