Detroit Comeback City
Field Producer
From ghost town to rising metropolis
Detroit was a booming city in the 80s, but in 2014 there is no sign of its former rise. After the financial crisis, Detroit is in ruins. Decay and crime have taken control. But the then bankrupt city found a way out of the crisis. Empty houses are inhabited again, companies are being founded, the comeback is in full swing. But how did Detroit do it? "Galileo" meets heroes of the rise and speaks to the people who never gave up their homeland.
