Project Home Draws up a Blueprint for Hope On Documentary Showcase

LOS ANGELES, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientology Network's DOCUMENTARY SHOWCASE, the weekly series providing a platform for independent filmmakers to air films on important social, cultural and environmental issues, presents the documentary Project Home on June 13, 2025.

DOCUMENTARY SHOWCASE airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Scientology Network.

Project Home traces the intersection of innovation and human resilience, exploring how cutting-edge 3D-printing technology may hold the key to solving the global housing crisis. Nonprofits Habitat for Humanity and New Story transform what was once a radical idea into a real-world solution with the creation of whole communities using 3D-printing technology.

At the heart of the film, director Laura Waters Hinson unveils the personal stories of those navigating the housing crisis: two single, hardworking mothers—one in a rural Mexican village, the other in Virginia—as they are given a path to homeownership. Their journeys highlight the power of community, entrepreneurship and ingenuity to shape lives.

Produced by Moving Pictures Institute (MPI)—a nonprofit that supports independent filmmakers advancing human freedom through film—Project Home premiered at the Heartland International Film Festival in Indianapolis, Indiana.
