Airing on the Sundance Channel, noted documentarians Marc Levin and Mark Benjamin have put together a five part show on the troubles facing Newark as seen through the eyes of several residents and Mayor Cory Booker. Booker is quoted in the article as saying: “The power of this film is that it deals with real people.” Benjamin said the project is an outgrowth of the incredibly high murder rate in Newark, something very much discussed in the show.
Newark faces many issues to be certain and it's very interesting to see a microcosm of them playing out before the cameras.
