After the Factory
What happens after the factory? Detroit Lives traveled to Poland to make a documentary about reinvention in post-manufacturing cities. It parallels Detroit with Lodz, whose textile industry has seen a similar decline to Detroit’s auto business. After the Factory premieres at the DIA’s Detroit Film Theater on Thursday, February 2nd at 7pm. Check out the Facebook invite for all the details on the event. It looks to be a beautiful film that gives new context to the problems we’ve been facing for years. Definitely looking forward to it.

OUR LATEST GIGPOSTER
We got to design and print a poster for Darling Imperial's farewell show at the Berkley Front. They let us do whatever we wanted, so we went with vintage lettering and a weathered, faded feel.
