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. This documentary, directed by Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, is making its Kansas premiere. USA, 2012. (90 minutes)
