A sobering documentary meditation on Detroit's decline as a microcosm of American economic collapse and the erosion of the post-war middle-class dream.

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.
