Beauty and Ruin

Directed by Marc de Guerre
Does art matter in a city on the verge of extinction?

One of North America’s most amazing collections of art can be found in the crumbling ruins of Detroit. As the once great ‘motor city’ declares bankruptcy in 2013 and thousands of retired workers risk losing their pensions, Detroiters search their souls: should they sell the art to save the city?
