This warts-and-all love letter to the city of Detroit documents how racial tension, globalization, lack of innovation and simple greed led to a "canary in the coal mine" moment in the Motor City. By looking in on a crazy quilt of ordinary citizens--a bar owner, a young blogger, a union rep, an opera impresario--the film examines what is happening in contemporary Detroit and what it takes to remain in one of America's most economically "downsized" cities.
