A young man sets out to "make it" - out of the projects.
Description
Daniel Howard lives with his hard-working, single mother in a Brooklyn housing project, where drug deals and the sound of gunfire are a common occurrence. Every day is a struggle to stay away from trouble.
But Daniel wants to succeed. To achieve this he knows he has to not only work hard in school, but also maintain a strong state of mind and positive outlook: "I'm trying to prove that I can make it even though I live in the projects."
