In the heart of Southeast DC, Franklin Terrace is dying.
The city has already approved demolition. Families are being forced out. Violence floods the hallways. Drugs, prostitution, shootings, and desperation consume the towers more every day. But for the people who still call the projects home, Franklin Terrace is more than broken buildings.
It's family. Survival. Memory. Identity.
As the neighborhood spirals toward destruction, young filmmaker JaCorey Corey Miles begins documenting the final days of the projects through his camera lens. What starts as a documentary quickly turns into something deeper as Corey becomes trapped inside the emotional collapse of the only world he's ever known.
Around him, lives unravel in real time:
A rising street figure trying to control chaos before the streets consume him.
Women fighting to protect their families while surviving impossible circumstances.
Young boys growing into men far too fast.
And an internet personality whose obsession with attention helps turn Franklin Terrace into a public spectacle before violence finally crashes into everyone's lives.
Raw, cinematic, emotional, and dangerously real, Last Days In The Projects is a powerful urban drama about survival, trauma, loyalty, and what happens when an entire community realizes its days are numbered.
Some neighborhoods disappear.
Others burn themselves into history forever.
