Join us for a free, drop-in screening of Detropia, a film by Detroit-area native Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady that chronicles the lives of several Detroiters trying to make sense of what is happening in their city.
About the film:
Detropia is a cinematic tapestry of a city and its people who refuse to leave the building, even as the flames rise around them. Through the lives of a blues bar owner, a young blogger, an auto union representative, and a group of emerging artists, the film forms an unlikely chorus that reflects both a city, and a country, in a moment of deep soul-searching, desperate for a new identity. Sculpted as a dreamlike collage, Detropia captures a grand city teetering on the brink of dissolution.
