The new documentary from Oscar-nominated filmmakers explores the contrasting past and present of the Motor City.

Detropia sculpts a dreamlike collage out of the haunting imagery of a once-grand city teetering on the brink of dissolution, but it also explores Detroit’s residents’ struggles to salvage a different future within postindustrial America.

Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, USA, 2012, 90 mins
