cyrusdowlatshahi: Chris told me, “Let people know man, it’s rough out here!” He was on his way to sleep in a park. Cyrus is working on what looks like it will be an incredible documentary addressing life on Chicago’s South Side. I interviewed the filmmaker when the project was in the midst of its Kickstarter campaign last fall. “In reality, outsiders just honestly have no reason to go to these neighborhoods. None of Chicago’s four main sports stadiums are in Englewood, they are in other neighborhoods. None of the architecture Chicago is famous for is found there, it’s in the heart of downtown along the river. All the tourist traps visitors frequent and Chicagoans work at… you won’t find any of those on 77th Street.”
