The BBC are making a documentary on Detroit centred on a century of the Motor industry, but more broadly on the city and it's people.

It feels particularly timely when the future of the car companies seems so bleak, to make a film in celebration of the hey-day of this industry and the city.

I am the researcher on this project, and am hoping through this forum to reach people who will give me their take on the story that needs to be told, people who can give insight into the history of the city and what it means to be a citizen of Detroit [[ I'm learning a lot by reading the threads on this forum) - and people who might have home movie footage of Detroit in whatever format.

If you have any information, footage, or insights you'd like to share, then please contact me at the following email address:

Many thanks - I look forward to hearing from you
