"Both an ardent love letter to past vitality and a grateful salute to those who remain in place...this is a beautiful film." -The New Yorker
"...haunting piece of documentary cinema..." -IndieWire
Detroit's story has encapsulated the iconic narrative of America over the last century the Great Migration of African Americans escaping Jim Crow; the rise of manufacturing and the middle class; the love affair with automobiles; the flowering of the American dream; and now . . . the collapse of the economy and the fading American mythos. With its vivid palette and haunting score, DETROPIA sculpts a grand city teetering on the brink of dissolution. Their grit and pluck embody the spirit of the Motor City as it struggles to survive postindustrial America and begins to envision a radically different future.
