Through its founder, Terry "Huncho" Cooper, we witness the story of the infamous basketball tournament in Harlem that has symbolized resilience, hope, and community for decades.

Amidst the ivy-draped remnants of once-notorious public housing projects, FOR THOSE THAT LIVED THERE weaves a visual tapestry, navigating the poignant impacts of gentrification, the displacement of Black legacies, and the emergent migrant narratives. Against Chicago's ever-evolving skyline, this evocative exploration immerses audiences into the soul of a neighborhood transformed.
