"The Corridor. Defended." Illustrates One Man's Life in Detroit's Cass Corridor


No matter what one might think of Detroit's Cass Corridor neighborhood, it's an important part of the city's history. And, it's also an important place for Mike Targus, writer and co-producer of "The Corridor. Defended.," his 14-minute short film. It's a film, he says, that was inspired by his "rough and tumble, drunken, and sometimes dangerous approach to living in Detroit's Cass Corridor neighborhood, and his belief that he had to "defend” the honor of Detroit by “keeping an eye on things.”

"The Corridor. Defended." is up for several I See You Awards®. You can watch the trailer right here.
