Project

About This Movie

So, 'Project' is this documentary that really captures the haunting beauty of an abandoned architectural wonder. The International Trade Fair Complex in Lagos, it’s like a ghost of modernism—its once sleek concrete structures are now submerged in water and overrun with greenery. There's this interesting contrast between the original ambition of the place and its current state, which feels almost poetic. The film's pacing is quite meditative; it takes its time to let the images sink in. You get a real sense of time eroding human effort. Plus, there’s this vibe of resilience as you see people repurposing the space into workshops and bike stalls. It’s that gritty ambiance that sticks with you long after watching.
