Treatment
Treatment
I. Synopsis/ Summary
This film will tell the story of one the most diverse neighborhoods not only in Chicago but possibly the world; the story of Rogers Park.
II. Background
A. Rogers Park is known through out the city of Chicago as the most diverse neighborhood in Chicago. The main selling point of this neighborhood is you won’t see just one culture, but a melting pot of different people working and living together.
B. The main question this film would raise is: How can we duplicate the diverse nature of this neighborhood and spread it around to more areas of the country?
III. Film Treatment
A. The characters of this film will be the people living in the neighborhood and how they feel about seeing different races and cultures everyday.
B. The event will be the sign of change that Rogers Park endured to really separate the neighborhood from every other one in Chicago.
C. A brief tour of where exactly Rogers Park is. Also, maybe give a reason that location could be one reason Rogers Park is so diverse.
D. The story line will follow the people living and working in the area. We can show how a Sari shop is only one block down from a Jewish Mosque and how that works without conflict.
E. The Time frame will be only a couple of days to maybe two weeks of everyday life in this neighborhood.
IV. Rationale
The need for this film is simple. The film will be an example of diversity and how effectively people of different races can live together. It will send a message that if it can work in this small neighborhood in Chicago why can’t it work everywhere else in the world.
